By Thomas Beddoes

Osservazioni E Sperienze Sull'uso Delle Arie Mefitiche Nella Tisi Polmonale... presents a detailed exploration of the use of 'mephitic airs' (gases) in the treatment of pulmonary phthisis (tuberculosis). Authored by Thomas Beddoes, Christoph Wilhelm Hufeland, and Christoph Girtanner, this work offers valuable insights into the medical practices and theories of the late 18th century.

The book delves into the experimental use of various gases and their effects on pulmonary conditions, providing a historical perspective on the development of respiratory medicine. This text is essential for historians of medicine and those interested in the evolution of treatments for tuberculosis and other respiratory ailments. It highlights the innovative, albeit sometimes misguided, approaches taken by medical practitioners in an era when scientific understanding of disease was rapidly evolving.
