The Vitals of History is before Chapter Two: An Old House and an Infrared Light.

"When we go to the doctor, he or she will not begin to treat us without taking out history—and not just our history but that of out parents and grandparents before us. The doctor will not see us until we have filled out many pages on a clipboard that is handed to us upon arrival. The doctor will not hazard a diagnosis until he or she knows the history going back generations." —Isabel Wilkerson, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontent, Page #13(Hardcover)
