Synopsis
This book provides an overview of pulmonary tuberculosis, a bacterial disease affecting the lungs. Since its discovery in 1882, the author traces the many ways in which it has been studied and treated, discussing everything from early misconceptions and ineffective treatments to the very latest methods and research.

He goes into great detail about his experiments, explaining how oxytuberculin helps the body's immune system fight off the disease.
