Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the development of syphilis in children and the maternal body and the concept that it is a form of transmissible disease. The author presents a detailed study of the syphilitic child, correlating the clinical evidence with postmortem pathology. Their specific focus is on diseases that begin in the fetal and infantile stages of a child's life, which they argue would be difficult to diagnose without knowledge of the mother's condition. As such, the author explores the relationship between these childhood afflictions and the health of the mother both before and during pregnancy. The author argues that the evidence points to a direct correlation between the health of the mother and that of the child, an idea many of the medical community at the time disputed.
