| 520 | _a"Baths and Bathing" by Various is a scientific and educational publication written in the late 19th century. The work likely serves as a health primer, focusing on the medical, physiological, and practical aspects of bathing. It is primarily aimed at informing readers about the effects and varieties of baths, bathing practices, and their roles in health and disease. The opening of "Baths and Bathing" introduces the structure and function of the skin, emphasizing its complexity and vital role in protecting the body, regulating temperature, and excreting waste. The discussion details the anatomy of the skin—including sweat glands, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, blood vessels, and nerve endings—underscoring the physiological significance of skin care. It then explores how bathing impacts the skin and the body's overall physiology, explaining the differing effects of hot and cold baths, principles of temperature regulation, and the importance of “reaction” (the body’s response following bathing). The early chapters also classify the many forms of baths—such as tepid, hot, cold, swimming, vapour, mineral, and more—describing their mechanisms, benefits, and historical context, all aimed at equipping the reader with foundational knowledge to make informed choices about bathing for health.
