Description
Disease is usually attributed to germs. The fact is that disease results from a complicated interaction between man and his environment. The food he eats, the air he breathes, the genetic traits he was born with, the physical and mental stresses he endures, no less than the microbes to which he is exposed, all help determine whether he will be healthy or sickly. In this book each chapter of the text is followed by a picture essay. The essay supplements the text and details the causes of the problem and the attempts that have been made to deal with it. - from Amzon
