This book examines the rise of the state's involvement in healthcare and public health with a focus on alleviating human suffering from tuberculosis. The author argues that in 1910, there was a collective realization that tuberculosis was a major social welfare issue, and outlines the shift from individual and family responsibility for medical care to a broader, public model of healthcare provision. The book provides insights into the development of the modern healthcare system in the United States, and offers lessons for policymakers and public health officials working to address complex social and medical issues today.
