"State Measures for the Direct Prevention of Poverty, War, and Pestilence" presents three articles by G. Drysdale, a Doctor of Medicine, addressing critical societal issues of the late 19th century. The essays explore practical state remedies for poverty, examine the potential for suppressing war, and delve into methods for the extinction of infectious diseases. Drysdale's work reflects a progressive vision of social reform and public health, advocating for proactive measures to improve the well-being of populations. His proposals offer insights into the historical context of social welfare and disease prevention, making this collection relevant for students and researchers interested in the history of social reform, public health, and peace movements.
