Book Description
20 incredible years that revolutionised our understanding of disease. From Hippocrates to Louis Pasteur, the medical profession relied on almost wholly mistaken ideas concerning infectious illness. Bleeding, purging and mysterious nostrums remained staple remedies. Surgeons, often wearing butcher's aprons caked in surgical detritus, blithely spread infection from patient to patient. Then, between 1879 and 1900, came the germ revolution. Scientific virtuosity, outstanding intellectual courage and bitter personal rivalries characterised this breathtaking rapid sea-change in scientific thinking.

Excerpt from On the Relations of Micro-Organisms to Disease: The Cartwright Lectures, Delivered Before the Alumni Association of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, February 19, 21, 24 and 27, 1883 Mr. President and Gentlemen: In accepting your flattering invitation to deliver the Cartwright lectures, I have, in compliance with your request, selected my present subject - almost the only one indeed which I would venture to discuss in your presence - not simply because of its intrinsic importance and interest, but also because there exists in the medical public of our land a diversity of opinion concerning it, which is not, in my estimation, warranted by the facts.

Book Description
Excerpt from On the Relations of Micro-Organisms to Disease: The Cartwright Lectures, Delivered Before the Alumni Association of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, February 19, 21, 24 and 27, 1883 Fungi - plants which, because devoid of chlorophyll and therefore unable to fabricate the necessary hydro carbons, are usually parasitic upon animal or vegetable tissues, living or dea d - may be divided into three general Classes: 1, the mould fungi (aspergillus varieties, for example), 2, the budding fungi (e. G. The yeast plant); and, 3, bacteria, or dividing fungi. Bacteria were defined in 1875 by Cohn as cells de void Of chlorophyll, of spherical, Oblong, or cylindrical, sometimes twisted or sinuous form, which reproduce themselves exclusively by transverse division and live either isolated or in families. This definition requires to-day but one modification; reproduction, namely, is known to occur in several species, at least by the forma tion and liberation of sp'ores as well as by fission. The bacteria consist of anitrogenous, highly refractive, usually colorless substance, protoplasm or mycoprotein (n enck1) imbedded In which glistening, Oily looking granules can sometimes be Observed. The bacterium exhibits a power Of resistance toward acids and alkalies which could not be possessed by a nitrogenous substance hence it was assumed by Cohn that the external layer is a Sheath of cellulose or similar hydrocarbonaceous material, such as the mould-fungi are known to possess. Although there has been as yet no decisive ocular demonstration Of the existence of this membrane, the reactions of certain spe cies toward straining fluids corroborate the assumption.
