The work consists of a series of reports that address the unsanitary conditions affecting public health in London, highlighting the severe consequences of neglect in sanitation practices. John Simon, as the author, serves as a key figure advocating for reforms in public health. The opening of this volume introduces Simon's dedication to the cause of public health, setting a serious tone regarding the alarming state of sanitation in the City of London during the late 1840s. He emphasizes the high mortality rates attributed to unsanitary conditions, particularly in the poorer districts of the metropolis. The text outlines the pressing issues he intends to address, such as defective drainage, inadequate water supply, offensive trades, intramural burials, and poor personal hygiene among the lowest classes. Simon makes a compelling argument for comprehensive sanitary reforms, urging that public health needs must be prioritized to alleviate the suffering caused by these neglectful practices.
