Why is not illness considered to be, a terrible thing any more? ii). Why is health regarded as an integral aspect of civilization/ iii).How do invalids form an exception to a rule? iv). Merely to be healthy is not to be civilized How does the author prove this point? v). What do present day people enjoy in addition to health?
