Rickets: A Lecture (1885)

By Thomas Carleton Railton

Rickets: A Lecture (1885) is a book written by Thomas Carleton Railton that explores the medical condition of rickets. The book was originally a lecture given by Railton to the Royal College of Surgeons in England. Railton discusses the causes, symptoms, and treatment of rickets, a disease that affects bone growth in children due to a deficiency in vitamin D. He also explores the history of rickets, its prevalence in different parts of the world, and the social and economic implications of the disease. The book provides a comprehensive overview of rickets and is a valuable resource for medical professionals, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
