Question

TO THE MODERN MIND, JOHN SNOW’S THEORY OF CHOLERA AS A WATERBORNE ORGANISM SEEMS EVIDENTLY CORRECT. HOWEVER, BECAUSE IT CONTRADICTED AN EXPLANATION FOR THE DISEASE’S TRANSMISSION WHICH HAD BEEN ACCEPTED FOR TWO THOUSAND YEARS AND WHICH WAS STILL PROMOTED BY THE LEADING FIGURES IN PUBLIC HEALTH AT THAT TIME, IT WAS REPEATEDLY DISMISSED IN THE MEDICAL GAZETTE AND IN PUBLIC DEBATE. HOW DID THE WORK OF WILLIAM FARR AND THE WORK OF EDWIN CHADWICK HELP AND HINDER SNOW’S DILIGENT EFFORTS TO PROVE TO THE NATION AND THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS INHABITANTS’ HEALTH THAT CHOLERA WAS INDEED WATERBORNE?

Teacher is looking to see that you can identify the ways in which BOTH men helped and BOTH men hindered Snow’s work (his attempt to demonstrate the accuracy of his waterborne theory) through their work. At first glance, it may look like one many helped and one many hindered. But at closer inspection, you’ll find evidence that the work of both men helped Snow. that the work of both men actually hindered his work, too! Your conclusion will be the most challenging part of the essay. After you’ve identified the evidence and included it in your discussion of the two men and their work, you’ll reach the point where you want to write a meaningful conclusion.That can only be written if you take a pause, step back, and then ask yourself this question: What are the greater implications of the work of these two men? In other words: So what? Did the two men try to stop Snow from proving his theory? Did they impede his work simply because of prejudice? Similarly, did they set out to help him to prove his theory when they did the work that helped? Or was it unintentional? What were their intentions? What consequences did their a) intentions, and b) their actions ultimately have on the acceptance of Snow’s theory, and the Municipal Health Board’s ability to protect the citizens of London?
