In this classic historical text on hospitals - featuring a foreword by the Florence Nightingale Museum - Nightingale reveals her passion for good hospital architecture and design. At Scutari she saw first-hand the harm which can be caused by inadequate and poorly designed hospital buildings. Nightingale openly criticised designs which she thought might lead to higher infection rates, and therefore patients' deaths.
