Summary
Details

L'air RarÃ(c)fiÃ(c) Dans Ses Rapports Avec L'homme Sain Et Avec L'homme Malade, written by D. Jourdanet, explores the effects of rarefied air on human health. Published in 1862, this French-language treatise delves into the physiological responses of both healthy and ill individuals to conditions of low atmospheric pressure, such as those encountered at high altitudes. Jourdanet's work provides a detailed examination of the medical challenges posed by mountain environments.

This historical medical text is valuable for those studying the history of medicine, environmental physiology, and the early understanding of altitude sickness. It sheds light on 19th-century scientific inquiry into the human body's adaptability and vulnerability in extreme natural settings, offering insights into the evolution of medical science and environmental awareness.
