Foreword
Congratulations!
I applaud all those, past and present, who have been involved in the OHTM
project. I congratulate them for establishing its high reputation and for
securing its promise of further, future, achievements. This small book, com-
prising barely 540 cm3 of printed pages, remains uniquely accessible, au-
thoritative, affordable, attractive, and appropriate for use in ‘All places that
the eye of heaven visits’, especially tropical countries, and anywhere travel
and immigrant medicine are practised.

Preface
The first edition (1999) of the Oxford Handbook of Tropical Medicine was
created by Michael Eddleston and Stephen Pierini, to fill a gap between
standard handbooks of clinical medicine that were unsuitable for use in
resource-poor settings, and World Health Organization (WHO) guide-
lines, which were more appropriate, but not available in a collected format.
Subsequent editions have evolved, but the vision remains to provide a prac-
tical, inexpensive handbook for clinicians working with tropical diseases,
especially in low-resource settings in the tropics. Lucille Blumberg joins
Andrew Brent, Anna Seale, and Robert Davidson as co-editor of the fifth
edition, and a large panel of international experts have once again updated
each chapter.
The concept and the content of tropical medicine are continually
evolving: classical tropical diseases including malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV
are all thankfully declining. In many regions, non-communicable diseases
have overtaken traditional tropical infections as major public health chal-
lenges. It is impossible for a single book to cater to every continent and
context all the time; nevertheless, we hope the book will continue to be a
useful resource for doctors, medical assistants, nurses, and other healthcare
professionals in most such setting.
We only ask that readers remain critical and selective, deciding what
is relevant for their own circumstances and facilities; and that they share
their comments and criticisms with the editors to further improve the book
for future editions. Comments can be sent via the OUP website: http://
ukcatalogue.oup.com/.
Acknowledgements
We would like to thank Professor David Warrell for writing the foreword
and Michael Eddleston, without whose initial vision and determination this
book would not exist. Finally, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to
the many expert authors who once again gave of their time and experience
in writing and updating each section of the new edition.
Royalties
All royalties from the sale of this book are being donated to the Tropical
Health Education Trust (THET), and the book will be available free online to
readers in the developing world via the WHO HINARI portal.

Previous contributors
The Oxford Handbook of Tropical Medicine would not be the resource it is
without the generous contributions of a large number of section authors,
each of whom is an international expert in their field and has given freely
of their time to ensure the book is as up to date and relevant as possible.
With each new edition the editors have invited new contributors to update
selected sections of the book, many of whom have built on the content
of previous authors. The editors would like to acknowledge the important
contribution of previous authors, all of whom are listed below.
We remember with sadness Prof Bongani Mayosi of the University of
Cape Town, who died tragically while this book was in preparation.

LXXXV.—No. 41, BEDFORD SQUARE.
Ground landlord and lessee.
Ground Landlord, His Grace the Duke of Bedford, K.G.;
lessee, Anthony Hope Hawkins, Esq.
General description and date of
structure.
On 20th November, 1777, a lease[753] was granted of the
thirteenth house from Charlotte Street, on the south side of Bedford
Square. This is now No. 41, Bedford Square.
The premises have been considerably modernized, but four
chimneypieces remain, that in the front room on the ground floor
being Greek in character, with panelled pilasters and acanthus
capitals. The one in the rear room on the same floor is treated with
three-quarter Ionic columns carrying the cornice directly over, to
which a shelf of later date has been added.
On the first floor, the chimneypiece in the front room (Plate
95) has coupled and bracketed pilasters and sculptured frieze. That
in the rear room (Plate 95) is inlaid with mottled green marble. It
retains the original cast-iron grate. The ornamental plaster ceiling in
this room has four oval plaques in square panels. According to Mr.
Anthony Hope Hawkins, the present occupier, it is composed partly
of old portions of a ceiling formerly in No. 30 or No. 31, Bedford
Square, the remaining part being a copy of a ceiling still existing in
one of these houses. The ceiling appears to be a replica of that in the
rear room of No. 31 (Plate 88), with the exception that it is of less
width, and consequently the central design, instead of being circular,
is compressed into an oval form.
Condition of repair.
The premises are in good repair.
Biographical notes.
According to the ratebooks, Robert Peers took the house in 1782 and
remained there until after the close of the century.
