N2  - This is an enlarged edition of an earlier publication, which appeared in Budapest in 1909. The author holds that many diseases now thought to be separate entities are, in reality, manifestations of concealed tuberculosis. Among these diseases are anemia, neurasthenia, thyrosis, hysteria, epilepsy, rheumatism, neuralgia, rachitis tarda and dysmenorrhea.
