Overview
""Account of an Improved Method of Treating the Small Pox"" is a medical book written by Charles Deering in 1737. The book describes an innovative approach to treating smallpox, which was a highly contagious and deadly disease that plagued Europe during the 18th century. Deering's method involved using a milder form of the disease called variolation, which involved inoculating patients with smallpox virus in a controlled environment to help build immunity. In the book, Deering provides a detailed account of his method, including the materials and techniques used, as well as the results of his experiments. He also discusses the history of smallpox and its impact on society, as well as the various treatments that were used at the time. Deering's book was highly influential in the medical community and helped pave the way for the development of modern vaccination techniques. It is considered a landmark work in the history of medicine and is still studied and referenced by medical professionals today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
