"The Mother's Manual of Children's Diseases" by Charles West is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The manual aims to provide comprehensive yet accessible information about various diseases affecting infants and children, focusing on helping mothers understand their children's health issues. Rather than serving as a guide for self-treatment, it emphasizes support for mothers in collaboration with medical professionals. The opening of the manual sets the stage for its purpose by discussing the high mortality rates among infants and the diverse causes of childhood illnesses, including hereditary factors, living conditions, and dietary issues. West aims to alleviate mothers' anxieties and equip them with knowledge to better manage their children's health, establishing foundational principles for understanding symptoms and general care. The text also outlines the structure of the manual, indicating the detailed discussions that will follow on specific diseases, their symptoms, and appropriate management strategies.
