Edward Jenner

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Edward Jenner's groundbreaking work in the late 18th century revolutionized medicine by introducing the concept of vaccination, leading to the eventual eradication of smallpox. His innovative approach stemmed from observing the immunity of milkmaids to cowpox, which he tested by inoculating a boy with cowpox before exposing him to smallpox, resulting in immunity. This biography explores Jenner's life, his pioneering medical experiments, and his lasting impact on public health and disease prevention, influencing efforts against illnesses like anthrax and measles.
