Title page and pages 170 to 176 of The Pathology of Internal Diseases, fifth edition, by William Boyd of the University of Toronto (Lea & Febiger, Philadelphia, 1950). The pages cover the pneumokonioses: silicosis, asbestosis, anthraco-silicosis, hematite miner's lung, bauxite fibrosis and beryllium pneumonitis. On asbestosis, the author describes diffuse fibrosis of the lower lobes and asbestos bodies. The author says those at risk are fiber-separation workers rather than miners, and notes a possible link with lung carcinoma, citing Homburger's 8 cases, 4 with carcinoma.
