Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the proceedings of The Seventeenth Annual Congress of the Sanitary Institute of Great Britain, held in Birmingham in 1898. The focus of the congress was to examine the continuing problems of housing, particularly as they relate to the health challenges faced by poor communities, such as the spread of waterborne diseases including typhoid fever. Topics covered included the effects of sanitation on housing, the spread of disease and how to combat it, and the latest innovations in urban planning. The author examines the difficulties of improving the welfare of poor communities and the challenges of enforcing health and sanitation among often reluctant or impoverished communities. The book further explores how poor sanitation within tenement flats and back-to-backs could be addressed. Topics covered include the new streets and building by-laws and the challenges of rehousing people displaced by urban development. Progress is noted, with local councils and government departments collaborating to reduce overcrowding and improve sanitation, but there remained significant issues to be addressed, highlighting the need for improved solutions to the provision of healthy urban housing for all.
