Paperback. Condición: New. Kibong'oto Hospital, opened in 1926, is an East African tuberculosis treatment center located on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Its history is crucial to understanding tuberculosis in Tanzania and, more broadly, in Africa. With the hospital as a point of departure, Christoph Gradmann presents a history of this disease that engages with local and regional contexts rather than with international elite science and health policies. The book addresses key questions about the African experience with tuberculosis: -What did it mean to do clinical science on tuberculosis in colonial and postcolonial contexts? -Along which trajectories did medical practice and research evolve in a place where international advances in medical science were sometimes heard of only faintly and where resources could be scarce? -How did a large hospital with several hundred beds dedicated to the treatment of just one condition figure in the development of national and regional health systems? -How did Kibong'oto Hospital, a pride of colonial health governance, transition after Tanzania gained independence? -How did treating and researching tuberculosis change throughout the twentieth century in an African hospital dedicated to that condition? -How did research at the hospital contribute to tuberculosis-control strategies on national and international levels? The book is based on the hospital's unique archive: its surviving library of thousands of case summaries. Since 1926, this library has documented an enormous number of patient lives, staff careers, diagnoses, treatments, clinical trials, and much more. For today's readers, the library provides insight into a history of clinical medicine in Africa, for which very few comparable archives exist. Gradmann supplements this site-specific research with material from national and international archives, as well as interviews with former staff involved in that history. The book's four chapters offer perspectives on colonial epidemiological research in the interwar years; on late colonial healthcare development plans and the arrival of modern drug therapies; on the role of a national tuberculosis hospital in a newly independent country; and on the history of tuberculosis control in an age of economic crisis, HIV, and emergent global health-treatment programs. Finally, Gradmann discusses what the history of a large hospital can add to today's tuberculosis research, control policy, and historiography. …

Original brochure. Condición: Gut. 22 p. A good and very clean copy. - Introduction: The 1890s have often been regarded as the breakthrough-age of bacteriology and microbiology: Following the earlier discoveries of germs as causal agents of infectious diseases, the decade saw the first successful attempts to develop specific antibacterial therapies for the infected patient. Applications of bacteriology had so far been more or less restricted to general hygienic measures such as disinfection or to preventive medicine, vaccines in particular. Behring and Kitasato's antiserum for diphtheria could be seen as a decisive step forward, since it seemed to offer the first tangible success in the field of specific therapy, based on scientific microbiological knowledge. The breakthrough of bacteriological hygiene in public health could be associated with the successfill measures against the 1892 Hamburg cholera epidemic, which were based on a bacteriological understanding of the epidemic. With the Institut Pasteur in Paris (1888) and the Institut für Infektionskrankheiten in Berlin (1891) the period saw the foundation of prestigious research-institutions, symbolizing the new science's growing reputation in another way. - Wikipedia: Christoph Gradmann (* 24.

Condición: New. Following the testing of therapeutic sera, the quantified evaluation of a pharmaceutical's efficacy became a key feature of medicine in the twentieth century. The case studies in this volume offer comparisons across Europe, from the diphtheria antitoxin in the late 1800s to the introduction of the Salk polio vaccine in the 1950s.
