Jewish Law and Sanitary Science

Jacob Snowman
Jewish Law and Sanitary Science explores the intersection of Jewish religious law (halakha) and the principles of public health and hygiene. Authored by Jacob Snowman, this work delves into the historical and practical aspects of how Jewish legal tradition has addressed matters of sanitation, cleanliness, and disease prevention. Examining a range of topics from ritual purity to dietary laws, the book illuminates the ways in which Jewish law has contributed to the safeguarding of communal health.

The Diagnosis of Surgical Cancer

John Zachariah Laurence
Excerpt from The Diagnosis of Surgical Cancer I Have first to thank the profession for the very favorable reception accorded to the former edition of this Essay: on that reception rests the apology for the comparatively early appearance of this edition. In the present edition will be found 1°, a multiplication of observed facts; 2°, the more matured reflections I have brought to bear on the interpretation of these facts: 3°, three additional Chapters - those on the Classification of Cancer, on Colloid Cancer and on Epithelioma. In the present utilitarian age the question often arises, what practical benefit ensues from the study of the pathology of an incurable disease; how much nearer do we approach the cure of Cancer? I regret to say we are as far off the cure of real Cancer, as we were in the days of Hippocrates. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
