The American Cleaning Institute (formerly The Soap and Detergent Association) has compiled this historical and technical record on the role of sanitation, medical advances, cleanliness and hygiene on public health and infection control.
This concise, 117-page book is a valuable resource for professionals and students in the medical, sanitation, education and public health fields. Learn what is described as the “health revolution,” the dawning of an era to end the struggle with devastating epidemics and when early death is no longer an accepted fate.
