Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical examination of the changing views and regulations around quarantine practices, focusing on yellow fever in New York City in the mid-19th century. The author examines the evolution of scientific understanding about the disease, the role of immigration, and the impact of quarantine measures on commerce and civil liberties, placing the debate within the broader context of the history of medicine and public health. Ultimately, the author argues that quarantine practices based on fear and ignorance hindered commerce and caused needless human suffering, while the development of more rational and evidence-based approaches improved both public health and economic prosperity.
