Science Man Freedom Editor's Note By De Huen
This final piece in a four part public health series surveys the shift from miasma theory to germ theory. It credits Pasteur with disproving spontaneous generation and tracing how germ discoveries by Pasteur and others advanced understanding of diseases like cholera and typhoid. The piece also briefly notes a contrasting African dance tradition.
