چکیده

Increasing attention has been paid in the last twenty-five years to the diseases caused by free silica (silicosis) and combined silica (asbestosis), and pulmonary tuberculosis is often associated with these pneumoconioses. The chapters on Epidemiology, Social Medicine, and Tuberculosis and War, are of great interest. There are admirable summaries of the Ministry of Health Memorandum 266/T with regard to treatment allowances, of various rehabilitation schemes, and of the factors which are held to be responsible for the increase of tuberculosis in war-time.
