Sinopsis

The Treatment of Infantile Paralysis is a medical book written by Robert Williamson Lovett and originally published in 1916. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the treatment of infantile paralysis, also known as polio, a disease that was prevalent during the early 20th century. The book begins with a detailed description of the disease, including its symptoms, causes, and progression. It then goes on to discuss various treatment methods, including massage, exercise, and electrical stimulation. Lovett also describes the use of braces and other orthopedic devices to help patients regain mobility.Throughout the book, Lovett emphasizes the importance of early intervention and the role of rehabilitation in the treatment of infantile paralysis. He also provides case studies and examples of successful treatments, as well as advice for caregivers and family members of those affected by the disease.Despite its age, The Treatment of Infantile Paralysis remains a valuable resource for medical professionals and researchers studying the history of polio and its treatment. It is also an important reminder of the devastating impact that the disease had on individuals and communities during the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
