'Die Weltseuche Cholera oder die Polizei der Natur' (The Global Cholera Epidemic or the Police of Nature) by Franz Pruner, originally published in 1851, provides a detailed historical account of the cholera epidemics that swept through Europe and the world during the 19th century. Pruner examines the social, political, and medical responses to the disease, exploring its impact on public health and the evolving understanding of its causes and transmission. This work offers insights into the challenges faced by communities and healthcare systems in combating infectious diseases in a pre-germ theory era. It remains a valuable resource for understanding the historical context of epidemics and the development of modern public health practices.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
