"The Sweating Sickness: A boke or counseill against the disease commonly called the sweate or sweatyng sicknesse" by John Caius offers a vital glimpse into the terror and uncertainty surrounding one of history's most mysterious epidemics. This essential historical text, originally published in the 16th century, provides firsthand observations and counsel concerning the sweating sickness, a devastating disease that swept through Europe.

Caius, a keen observer of his time, meticulously documents the symptoms, progression, and potential remedies as understood during this era of limited medical knowledge.

A valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine, disease outbreaks, and the social impact of epidemics.
