The Polio Years in Texas: Battling a Terrifying Unknown

From the 1930s to the 1950s, in response to the rising epidemic of paralytic poliomyelitis (polio), Texas researchers led a wave of discoveries in virology, rehabilitative therapies, and the modern intensive care unit that transformed the field nationally. This title presents an account of the epidemics that swept Texas during the polio years.
