Excerpt from The Welfare of the School Child
In these pages an attempt has been made to show the importance of healthy environment for the welfare of the school child. Attention is directed in various sections of the book to the need for comprehensive and complete Public Health administration. The School Medical Service in the early stages of its growth was largely occupied in the detection and treatment of defects. The time has now come to attack the beginnings of disease and the causes of illness. Under the direction of the Ministry of Health all the forces of Preventive Medicine must be marshalled for the fray.
In preparing the book, use has been made of the publications of Government Departments, and in particular the Annual Reports of the Registrar-General and of the Medical Officers of the Local Government Board and the Board of Education.
To my friend Dr. Austin Nankivell I am deeply indebted for valuable criticisms and advice.
