From the preface, " In this period of the world's history, with war, revolution and general unrest practically universal, one fact at least seems clear and incontrovertible - if hygiene and preventive medicine have an important function to perform in modern society now is the opportune time for them to demonstrate their worth and usefulness. Whether we think of the soldier and sailor, the airman, the factory worker, the miner, the student, or the housewife, each and every one is facing a new world today, a world in which security and comfort can no longer be the common expectation, a world in which the ability to adjust to new conditions and to meet new problems is essential if we are on sale to survive."
