Synopsis
This book synthesizes historical scientific studies on the effects of indoor and outdoor air pollution, with a special emphasis on the impact of humidity. The author provides a thorough examination of the physical and physiological effects of humidity on the human body, reviewing early studies on the organic poison theory dating back to the 1800s, and concluding with more recent studies that focus on the physical theory of heat and humidity. The book also explores the impact of humidity on mental performance, with a review of the Ventilation Commission's series of psychological experiments on the topic. The author concludes with an analysis of the impact of weather on mental health, arguing that low humidity correlates to restlessness and nervousness that can lead to misconduct and irritability.
