Description
Some 250 articles of outstanding significance, published between July 1, 1954, and December 31, 1955, are summarized by Dr. Oliver E. Byrd in this latest in his series of Health Yearbooks. The most recent reports by medical science record findings that help to answer such questions as:
What are the values and limitations of reserpine and comparable drugs in the treatment of mental illness? (p. 54)
What are the effects on human populations of increases in high-energy radiation through the explosions of A-bombs and H-bombs and through widespread medical use of X-rays? (p. 77)
How safe is vaccination against poliomyelitis? (p. 92)
In what ways can animal diseases be spread to man? (p. 104)
Can an injury cause arthritis? (p. 120)
How effective are toothpastes containing "antienzymes" in preventing tooth decay? (p. 186)
What should you keep in mind in selecting a health and accident policy? (p. 231)
What trends in health patterns can we expect in the United States in the next two decades? (p. 307)
