Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Future of Sanitary Science: An Address Delivered Before the Sanitary Great Britain at the Royal Institution, on July 5th, 1877
It seems fitting, therefore, as we enter on our work, to look forward to the future. It is a part at least of our duty to look towards the future with the view of seeing in what directions we may best proceed; what assistances we may have to call upon and chiefly, what great powers we may have to con sult and propitiate. The three great powers with which our society will have to treat are the Political, the Medical, the Social. From each of them we shall expect constant assistance. To one or other of them, whatever we do, our work will be transmitted or transferred. They will bring it into practical form and effect, or they will reduce it to nothingness. We can suggest and set forth initiatives, and with that our functions are complete in each particular branch to which we address ourselves.
