Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the similarities between gout and rheumatic fever, viewing both as largely lesser-known disorders of the blood. The author believes that both stem from the presence of a morbid matter circulating in the blood, infecting various parts of the body in succession. The book is an in-depth historical review of blood diseases, noting how their true nature has only recently been clarified. The author draws parallels between gout and rheumatism and other blood diseases with much better understood origins, like syphilis and glanders, as these diseases demonstrate similar symptoms and patterns. Ultimately, this book looks to reframe our understanding of gout and rheumatism, paving the way for more effective diagnoses and treatments in the future.
