"The Serum Treatment of Swine Plague and Hog Cholera" offers a detailed look into late 19th-century veterinary science, specifically focusing on the development and application of serum treatments for two devastating diseases affecting swine populations. Authored by M. Dorset, D.E. Salmon, and E.A. De Schweinitz, this work provides insights into the scientific methodologies and challenges of combating animal diseases during a period of significant advancements in bacteriology and immunology.
The book meticulously documents the processes involved in creating and administering serum treatments, offering a valuable historical perspective on the evolution of veterinary medicine. It serves as a primary source for understanding the early efforts to control infectious diseases in livestock and the scientific principles that underpinned these endeavors. This treatise will be of interest to historians of science, veterinary professionals, and anyone interested in the historical context of disease control and animal husbandry.
