This work delves into the historical and medical aspects of two significant infectious diseases, the plague and yellow fever, exploring their origins, symptoms, and methods of prevention and cure. It is an extensive examination aimed at providing physicians and the public with a deeper understanding of these devastating diseases. At the start of the treatise, Tytler introduces the concept of the plague, describing its historical prevalence and examining different plagues recorded throughout history, including references to the Old Testament and accounts from ancient and modern sources. He highlights the catastrophic impact of plagues, not just in terms of mortality rates but also in how they disrupt societies, leading to moral and social decay during outbreaks. Tytler sets the stage for a detailed inquiry into the nature of the plague, its contagion, and the significant challenges faced by medical practitioners in combating such diseases, aiming to provide a comprehensive analysis that blends historical accounts with medical perspectives.
