Abstract
UNDER the above title Dr. Sisley has collected papers read by him during the past twelve months before the Society of Medical Officers of Health, the Epidemiological Society, and the Congress of Hygiene. To these are appended extracts from the different Acts bearing on infectious disease, the provisional memorandum on epidemic influenza just issued by the Local Government Board, and sundry other matters connected with the subject. The work makes no pretence to be a study of influenza from the clinical or pathological stand-point; it deals simply with the prevention of the disease in epidemic form, and the legal machinery at our command for that purpose.
A Study of Influenza, and the Laws of England concerning Infectious Diseases, &c.
