Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

"Whorton's scrutiny of constipation illuminates the rich legacyresponsible for our continued fascination with intestinal regularity. He focuseson the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when, as a "civilized" disease,constipation became part of he clarion cry of all who worried about thecompromised state of our "inner hygiene." Whorton fleshes (flushes?!) out acadre of characters and therapies that outdo one another in their eccentricitiesand outrageousness. For the clinician mystified by a patient's preoccupationwith bowel regularity or insistence that colonic irrigation is the route tointestinal Nirvana, Whorton's nner Hygiene will prove to be just what the doctorordered." -- Micaela Sullivan-Fowler, MS, MA, JAMA, Feb 21, 2001, Vol 285, No.7, "This scholarly tome is a major addition to the growing body of social history of medicine/health care literature and a very enjoyable reading experience." --Pharmacy in History"Very thought provoking."--Can J Gastroenterol, Vol 15 No 3, March 2001"This scholarly tome is a major addition to the growing body of social history of medicine/health care literature and a very enjoyable reading experience." --Pharmacy in History"This book is exhaustive and scholarly, but, thank goodness, it is also a wry chronicle. To anyone who grew up puzzling over delicately worded radio ads for peculiar products like Serutan ("nature's spelled backwords"), Sal Hepatica and Carter's Little Liver Pills, or wondering how Grandma could have been addicted to Feen-a-Mint laxative chewing gum, Dr. Whorton's book will explain it all." --Denise Grady, Health & Fitness, The New York Times"As the title suggests, the book sprang from the notion that good health is associated with the regular elimination of waste from our system. Mr. Whorton uses references in medical literature dating from the 1700s to present to document a history of what he calls the fundamental disease of civilization ." - Nancy Melville, The Dallas Morning News, August 21, 2000"Whorton's scrutiny of constipation illuminates the rich legacy responsible for our continued fascination with intestinal regularity.

Synopsis
Inner Hygiene explores the serious health threat of constipation, and discusses the extraordinary variety of preventive and curative measures that have been developed to save people from the toxic effects of intestinal regularity. The book examines the evolution over the last two centuries of the belief that constipation is a disease brought on by an unnatural lifestyle of urban, industrial society. Particular attention is given to the many constipation therapies that people have used, including laxatives, enemas, mineral waters, bran cereals, yogurts, electrotherapy, calisthenics, rectal dilation devices, and many other remedies. The story is carried up to the present and demonstrates that many of constipation therapies of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries are continuing into the twenty-first., Inner Hygiene explores the serious health threat of constipation, and discusses the extraordinary variety of preventive and curative measures that have been developed to save people from the toxic effects of intestinal irregularity.
