The emergence of springtime is now dreaded by more people every year, and increasingly, all year long. More of us are faced with allergies and hay fever with each passing year. Why are so many people suffering from allergies and hay fever—medically called allergic rhinitis—and why is the condition affecting more of us each year? And what causes allergies and hay fever? And more importantly, how can we find allergy relief? What kinds of strategies can we employ for hay fever relief? What about natural hay fever medicines? Or natural allergy medicines? And can we do anything to reverse allergies and hay fever? Drawing from hundreds of studies and research papers and centuries of natural medicine remedy applications, the mysteries about allergies and hay fever are solved. Safe and proven natural strategies to reverse allergic rhinitis and its underlying issues are described in detail. These include inexpensive solutions that come with clinical evidence, along with applications that health professionals can employ in their practices. Whether health providers, allergy sufferers or their families, this text is a necessary reference for those wishing to solve the riddle of allergic rhinitis. (Note: Some technical scientific language is used to describe and reference scientific studies. Lay readers can skim these areas and still understand the concepts and strategies.)

Allergy is the sixth leading cause of chronic illness in the United States. More than fifty million Americans suffer from allergies, and they spend an estimated $18 billion coping with them. Yet despite advances in biomedicine and enormous investment in research over the past fifty years, the burden of allergic disease continues to grow. Why have we failed to reverse this trend? Breathing Space offers an intimate portrait of how allergic disease has shaped American culture, landscape, and life. Drawing on environmental, medical, and cultural history and the life stories of people, plants, and insects, Mitman traces how America’s changing environment from the late 1800s to the present day has led to the epidemic growth of allergic disease. We have seen a never-ending stream of solutions to combat allergies, from hay fever resorts, herbicides, and air-conditioned homes to numerous potions and pills. But, as Mitman shows, despite the quest for a magic bullet, none of the attempted solutions has succeeded. Until we address how our changing environment—physical, biological, social, and economic—has helped to create America’s allergic landscape, that hoped-for success will continue to elude us.

"This 1925 comedy of manners that's funny yet also unorthodox and unsettling... a celebration of abnormality and at the same time a disquieting study of both the pleasures and the pains of not being able to restrain oneself." - Evening Standard When four guests, all invited by different members of the Bliss family, arrive for a weekend at their country house near Maidenhead, they're expecting a idyllic retreat. But this peaceful promise is quickly trounced when the self-absorbed eccentricities of the Blisses are trained on the guests, who leave the country mansion humiliated and embarrassed. First produced in 1925, Hay Fever is a technical masterpiece, seamlessly combining high farce with a comedy of manners, and delivering Coward his first major commercial success. This new edition is published in Methuen Drama's iconic Modern Classics series to coincide with the 125th anniversary of Coward's birth and features a new introduction by Michael Billington.
