Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. Stiff unmarked book in glossy dust jacket.; 10.5 x 13.25"; 146 pages; This 146-page hardcover (with dust jacket, profusely illustrated in color and black-and-white photographs/figures) is a historical overview of allergic diseases, focusing on allergic rhinitis (hay fever) , asthma, and other hypersensitivity conditions. It traces their recognition, descriptions, and treatments from ancient civilizations through the 20th century. Key contents include: Contributions from international allergists and immunologists, covering early observations in ancient Egypt (e. G. , Ebers Papyrus) , China (ephedra for wheezing/asthma-like symptoms around 2500 BC) , Greece (Hippocrates coining "asthma") , Rome, the Middle Ages, Renaissance, and modern eras. Milestones like the 16th-century "rose catarrh" (early seasonal allergy descriptions) , 19th-century experiments (e. G. , Morrill Wyman inducing symptoms with ragweed pollen) , and the coining of "allergy" by Clemens von Pirquet in 1906. Discussions of mechanisms, key figures (e. G. , Galen, Avicenna, Blackley) , cultural perspectives, and the evolution of understanding immune responses, anaphylaxis, and treatments. A bibliography, index, and multilingual summaries (French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish). It's described as a concise yet detailed medical history bookâ"more scholarly reference than narrativeâ"praised in allergy blogs and reviews for its cultural-by-cultural approach to how ancient and historical physicians viewed and managed what we now recognize as allergies. It's a collectible item for medical historians, allergists, and enthusiasts, with used copies often priced $80â"$150+ due to its out-of-print status and limited print run.
