'Scurvy' Lind's medical geography
The name James Lind is not one usually associated with medical geography. Yet Lind's book, An Essay on the Incidence of Diseases in Hot Climates, written in 1768, is of great importance in the development of medical geography. When Finke wrote his medical geography a quarter of a century later he quoted extensively from Lind.
