It also provides a detailed overview of the various attempts to find a cure for smallpox, including the use of variolation, a precursor to vaccination.The book then delves into the development of vaccination, starting with the work of Edward Jenner in the late 18th century.

The book also discusses the role of vaccination in the eradication of smallpox, which was officially declared in 1980.Throughout the book, Edwardes provides a wealth of information and insight into the social, political, and scientific contexts of smallpox and vaccination in Europe.
