Excerpt from Home and Community Hygiene: A Text-Book of Personal and Public Health

Nurses will find many possible starting points, though school nurses as well as teachers may choose Chapter XV, on the school, from which point drinking fountains may lead to the chapter on water, school epidemics to the chapter on prevention of disease, or the ventilation problem to the chapter on air and ventilation, etc.

This flexible plan is further made possible by the addition of a glossary containing simple definitions to which the reader is re ferred by a (g) placed after any technical term the first time it occurs in each chapter. This glossary and the introductory char acter of the first two chapters insures its readability to any really interested student in normal schools and colleges. This book has been made as brief as the varied chapter content would allow, much of the material ordinarily included being condensed into tables. Advanced students should continue to use the more advanced texts, some of which are most valuable and comprehensive. (see refer ence list in Appendix.)
