Abstract
THE author of this work has a most important aim in view, viz. to establish the connection between the weather and the prevalent diseases in Queensland, and expresses a hope that, in time, he will be able, if furnished with a forecast of the weather, to predict with certainty the diseases likely to predominate during the various seasons of the year, and thus to lay the foundations of a practical system of preventive medicine.
Notes on some of the more Common Diseases in Queensland in relation to Atmospheric Conditions, 1887–91.
