""The Three Original Publications On Vaccination Against Smallpox"" is a book that compiles the three original works of Edward Jenner, a British physician who is credited with the discovery of the smallpox vaccine. The book includes ""An Inquiry into the Causes and Effects of the Variolae Vaccinae"", ""Further Observations on the Variolae Vaccinae"", and ""A Continuation of Facts and Observations Relative to the Variolae Vaccinae"". These three publications were written by Jenner between 1798 and 1800 and describe his groundbreaking research on the use of cowpox to prevent smallpox. In these works, Jenner presents his findings and arguments for the efficacy of vaccination against smallpox, which was a deadly disease at the time. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of medicine and the development of vaccines.THIS 90 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Scientific Papers: Physiology, Medicine, Surgery, Geology: V38 Harvard Classics, by Edward Jenner.
