The Laws Relating to Public Health, Sanitary-Medical-Protective: Including the Legislation to the End of the Last Session of Parliament (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Laws Relating to Public Health, Sanitary-Medical-Protective: Including the Legislation to the End of the Last Session of Parliament

In 1848 an Act of Parliament, entitled the Public Health Act, was obtained, under which Boards of Health have been established in numerous towns of England, for the execution of works of general sanitary improvement. The effects even already produced by such measures, in increasing the value or expectation of life in those towns to which they have been applied, have been ably set forth from time to time by Dr. Farr, in the Reports of the Registrar General.
