This book explores the nature and effects of rickets, an illness that predominantly afflicted children from the 17th century onwards and continues to do so in some parts of the world today. The author's clinical observations and experiments examine the impact of rickets on children's growth, bone development, and dental health. The researcher argues that rickets is more than just a localized skeletal ailment and instead is a constitutional disease that affects the whole body and metabolism. The book's nuanced exploration of rickets' effects on children's physical development is framed within an awareness of the illness's social and economic context, providing a uniquely comprehensive view of this once-prevalent childhood disease.
