520    In this comprehensive account of the history and treatment
       of beriberi, Kenneth Carpenter traces the decades of 
       medical and chemical research that solved the puzzle posed
       by this mysterious disease. Caused by the lack of a minute
       quantity of the chemical thiamin, or vitamin B1 in the 
       diet, beriberi is characterized by weakness and loss of 
       feeling in the feet and legs, then swelling from fluid 
       retention, and finally heart failure.
