The Pasteurization of France

Almost every town in France has a street named for Louis Pasteur—but did he alone stop people from spitting, persuade them to dig drains, influence them to get vaccinated? Latour makes the case that Pasteur’s success depended upon a network of forces including the public hygiene movement, the medical profession, and colonial interests.
