af Thomas Percival

A physician and medical reformer, Thomas Percival (1740-1804) is most notable for his pioneering contribution to the formulation of medical ethics. This one-volume reissue brings together two volumes of his essays on a variety of medical subjects, notably public health, published in a revised second edition of 1772 and a follow-up collection of 1773.
