Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Filterable Viruses' is a landmark scientific work edited by Thomas M. Rivers, a pioneer often regarded as the father of modern virology. This comprehensive volume serves as a foundational text in the study of sub-microscopic pathogens, providing a detailed examination of agents that pass through filters capable of retaining bacteria. Through a series of rigorous papers, the work explores the physical and chemical properties of these agents, their host specificity, and the clinical manifestations of the diseases they cause.The text offers deep insights into early 20th-century research on conditions such as smallpox, rabies, and poliomyelitis, bridging the gap between classical microbiology and the then-emerging field of virology. By synthesizing experimental data and pathological observations, the work clarifies the unique nature of viruses as distinct biological entities rather than mere toxins or small bacteria. For medical historians, researchers, and students of life sciences, 'Filterable Viruses' remains an essential reference that documents the transition toward our modern understanding of viral infection and public health. This work stands as a testament to the investigative spirit that paved the way for contemporary vaccine development and molecular biology.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible.

worn dust-jacket chipped at top of spine and worn along edges, cover price $17.50, very good red cloth. INSCRIBED in very small letters on front endpaper to a well-known US historian, with warm regards, and SIGNED by editor Saul Benison, 29 Sept 1967. RIVERS, THOMAS M. Tom Rivers: reflections on a life in medicine and science; an oral history memoir, prepared by Saul Benison. Cambridge, Mass.: M.I.T. Press, 1967, xxi, 682pp., . In the last few months of his life, an eminent pioneer in the field of virology looks back over his eventful career and through the medium of oral history leaves behind him an authoritative account of the genesis of this important branch of science. The book is a record, edited only for reading convenience, of a series of tape-recorded interviews of the late Dr. Thomas M. Rivers of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research. The interviewer, Saul Benison, is a historian of medicine and science who equipped himself for the task through extensive research in hitherto unused primary source materials. What merges is an autobiography presented in Dr. Rivers' conversational style, reflecting his colorful personality, and spanning a long and eventful period of biomedical investigation. - CONTENTS: Beginnings -- Young physician -- Rockefeller institute for medical research- 1922 -- Virology and virologists- 1926 -- Process of virus research- 1930 -- Rockefeller institute hospital- 1937 -- National foundation for infantile paralysis: early research programs- part I -- National foundation for infantile paralysis: early research programs- part II -- NAMRU 2- a virologist at war -- Public health research institute of New York -- Some aspects of poliomyelitis research- 1946-1948 -- Active and passive immunization against poliomyelitis- 1949-1953 -- Prelude to the salk vaccine -- Salk vaccine and sabin vaccine- 1954-1958 -- Early days of retirement.…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good First Edition in original publisher's cloth. Binding remains sound and square with strong hinges and a clean, well-preserved text block. Gilt lettering remains bright and legible. Minor rubbing and shelf wear consistent with age. Interior pages are clean and unmarked aside from a contemporary presentation inscription on the front free endpaper reading, "A gift from H. B. Slater to the Riverside Community Hospital, June 6, 1928." Complete with all 15 plates as called for. A handsome and well-preserved example of an important early medical work. A landmark contribution to the emerging science of virology, edited by Thomas M. Rivers, widely regarded as one of the founders of modern virology. Published during a formative period in virus research, this volume assembles contributions from leading investigators studying the nature, transmission, cultivation, and pathology of so-called "filterable viruses"—organisms then only beginning to be understood as distinct from bacteria. Contributors include several pioneering figures whose work helped establish virology as an independent scientific discipline. The volume captures a pivotal moment in medical history, documenting scientific understanding of viral diseases before the advent of electron microscopy, molecular biology, and modern vaccine development. Topics include experimental methods, viral pathology, epidemiology, and laboratory investigations that laid the groundwork for much of twentieth-century infectious disease research. An increasingly desirable title for collectors of medical history, infectious disease literature, microbiology, public health, and early virology. Copies complete with all plates and possessing contemporary provenance are becoming difficult to locate in collectible condition. Carefully packed and shipped in a box. Shipped via USPS with tracking provided. International shipping available. Additional photographs available upon request. Please review photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
