De Vermibus In Lepra Obviis, by Johann Andreas Murray, explores the presence of worms in leprosy. This historical text, originally published in Latin and later translated, combines observations on leprosy with detailed investigations into various types of worms (lumbricorum sectis). Murray's work offers insights into the medical understanding of leprosy during the 18th century, reflecting contemporary theories about the disease and its causes. The book provides a valuable glimpse into the history of medicine and the scientific methods employed to study diseases and parasites.
