Abstract: Depuis la fin du 19ème siècle, l'histoire de John Snow et de ses recherches sur la contagiosité du choléra a fasciné les épidémiologistes. Plusieurs leçons ont été tirées de l'interprétation et de la réinterprétation du travail de Snow, qui ont varié selon les perspectives dominantes. L'histoire de John Snow continue a évoluer, même au sein du 21ème siècle. Copyright Birkhäuser Verlag 2001
