Practical guide for preventing tuberculosis in cities and homes. This first annual report from the Charity Organization Society of New York presents a concrete plan to reduce TB through community action, education, and better living conditions.
The book emphasizes that helping those who are ill should not create more hardship, and it discusses how households, workplaces, and city services can work together to cut infection. It includes historical context, a view of social factors, and a call for sanatoria, better housing, and public health measures that protect families while respecting patients’ dignity.
Ideal for readers interested in the history of public health and early 20th‑century efforts to curb tuberculosis in urban America.
