Further Observations on the Variolae Vaccinae, or Cow Pox (1799)

Further Observations On The Variolae Vaccinae, Or Cow Pox (1799) is a book written by Edward Jenner, a British physician and scientist who is credited with the discovery of vaccination. The book is a continuation of Jenner's earlier work on cowpox, a disease that was commonly found in cows and was known to provide immunity against smallpox. In this book, Jenner presents further evidence to support his theory that cowpox could be used as a means of preventing smallpox. He describes his experiments with cowpox vaccination, including the successful inoculation of individuals who had never been exposed to smallpox. The book also includes detailed case studies of individuals who had been vaccinated with cowpox and their subsequent immunity to smallpox. Jenner's work on vaccination was groundbreaking and had a significant impact on the eradication of smallpox, which was once a deadly and widespread disease. Further Observations On The Variolae Vaccinae, Or Cow Pox (1799) is an important historical document that sheds light on the early development of vaccination and its impact on public health.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
