Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Organic Diseases of the Womb IT is to be regretted that, notwithstanding all the zeal for science among British practitioners, and with a host of standard professional works on every other depart ment, the diseases of the womb have not obtained the place in medical research which their immense importance demands. For, if there be any class of affections more important than another, and more deserving the devoted study of the physician who is at the same time philanthropist, we Claim the pro-eminence for those of the genera tive function in the female: both because.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Organic Diseases of the Uterus: Being the Prize Essay to Which the Medical Society of London Awarded the Fothergillian Gold Medal for 1843 The Council of the Medical Society of London having selected as the subject of the Fothergillian Essay for 1843 "The Symptoms and Treatment of Organic Diseases of the Uterus," I was induced to write the following Treatise, which is now submitted to the public, and more especially to the members of the medical profession. The appointment which for several years past I have had the honour of filling at Guy's Hospital has given me an opportunity of seeing no inconsiderable number of cases of uterine disease. This will not be doubted when I state that from one to two hundred out-patients, labouring under functional and organic disease of the womb, come week by week under my own personal inspection. To the following Essay, laid before the Council of the Medical Society, and to which was awarded the Fothergillian Gold Medal, I have made some slight additions. In one or two respects it has been altered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Acute and Chronic Diseases of the Neck of the Uterus I shall not here discuss the moral differences between a diagnosis made by the operation of touching, and a metroscopio one. Either of them is bad enough, in itself considered; but as neither of them could be sup posed possible, except out of some direful necessity of the patient, and as the one is not essentially more revolt ing to the feelings of the sufferer than the other, it ap pears to me that the argument is as valid against the one as the other. No one will deny that the delicacy of those relations that exist between medical people and their female patients, opposes, in a variety of cases, an insuperable barrier against any successful treatment whatever, for there are found individuals so fastidious as to prefer pain, disease, and even death itself, to any revelation concerning their disorders. Some women, who do not object to relate the history of their diseased sensations, compel us to rest satisfied with such barren histories as they themselves can give.

Download or read book A Practical Treatise on the Diseases Peculiar to Women written by Samuel Ashwell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Diseases Peculiar to Women: Illustrated by Cases, Derived From Hospital and Private Practice The book will contain little which is not the product of my own practice and observation and if I have not quoted largely from the works of others, it has not arisen from any want of a due appreciation of their excellence, nor from any unwillingness to acknowledge obligation, but because every practical book ought mainly to rest on what its author knows and has proved for himself to be true and valuable. Where such is the case, a writer naturally uses a phraseology of his own; the dress in which he appears before the public is seen to belong, not to another, but to himself; and there is, in consequence, a consistency of arrangement and character throughout the whole. Nevertheless, it will be seen on perusal, that I have not forgotten to mention the names of those from whom I have derived valuable assistance.

Download or read book Cosmic Womb written by Chandra Wickramasinghe, Ph.D. and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compelling evidence that life, intelligence, and evolution on Earth were seeded by comets and cosmic intelligence • Explains how life first came from interstellar dust and comets and how later arrivals of cosmic dust and comets spurred evolution • Explores the possibility that universal knowledge may be stored in human DNA and how ancient cultures may have known a way to retrieve this knowledge • Reveals new discoveries about the dimensions of the Great Pyramid of Giza All ancient cultures link humanity’s origins to the heavens. The Egyptians, for example, were adamant that their ancestors came from the stars of Orion and Sirius. Today, however, religion and science assert that life arose spontaneously here on Earth. Did the ancients know our true cosmic origins? Have they left us clues? Expanding on the panspermia theory developed with the celebrated astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle--namely that the building blocks of life were imported to Earth by comets in the distant past--Chandra Wickramasinghe and Robert Bauval explore the latest findings in support of a cosmic origin for humanity. They detail the astrobiological discoveries of organic molecules deep in space, how microbes are incredibly resistant to the harshest conditions of space--enabling the transfer of genes from one star system to another, and the recent recovery of microorganisms from comets still in space. They argue that the universe was “born” and preset with the blueprint of life and that the cosmos must be teeming with lifeforms far older and perhaps far more developed than us. They show how life arrived on our planet in the form of interstellar dust containing alien bacteria approximately 3.8 billion years ago and how later comets, meteoroids, and asteroids brought new bacterial and viral genetic material, which was vital for evolution. Using the latest advances in physics, cosmology, and neuroscience, the authors explore how universal knowledge may be stored in human DNA and cells, and they postulate that ancient cultures, such as the pyramid builders of Egypt and the temple builders of India, may have known a way to retrieve this knowledge. Sharing new discoveries from experienced architects, engineers, and mathematicians, they show how the Great Pyramid is a three-dimensional mathematical equation in stone, bearing a potent message for humanity across time and space about who we are and where we come from.

Download or read book Shang Han Lun written by Zhang Ji and published by Paradigm Publications. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 1281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shang Han Lun has been a primary treatment theory and practice source for nearly two millenia. Its author, Zhang Zhong Jing, has been named the “Chinese Hippocrates” to highlight the depth and breadth of his contribution to traditional Chinese drug therapy. This edition features the Chinese text, Pinyin transliteration, and an English translation of the entire Song Dynasty text, the content and textual order most used in Asia. Just as in Chinese language editions, it is fully supplemented with notes and commentaries. The notes describe the clinical symptoms Zhang Zhong Jing associated with the Chinese terms. For example, modern interpretations of a “moderate” pulse often refer to the speed of its beats. The same term, when used in the Shang Han Lun, refers to a pulse that is loose, soft, and harmonious. Such notes provide practitioners with the clinical observations necessary to properly apply the information. The commentaries further enhance the text’s clinical utility by explaining the theoretical and practical foundations behind the lines of text. Because entire bodies of theory and practice can be associated with the terms and expressions used in canonical works like the Shang Han Lun, commentaries have become a standard means of knowledge acquisition for Asian students. The commentaries in this edition serve exactly the same purpose, greatly enhancing its utility. The introductory matter explains the background of the text, the conceptual structure of its contents, and the problems of exegesis. The appendices are designed to assist those studying Chinese and the glossary and the full Pinyin-English index make this an easily accessed reference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescent endometriosis is a previously overlooked disease in children, the true prevalence of which is still unknown but has been estimated between 19-73%. There are numerous initial challenges faced by adolescents suffering from delayed or undiagnosed endometriosis apart from experiencing chronic pain, such as: school/work absenteeism, false diagnoses/treatments, erroneous physician referrals, unnecessary radiological studies, radiation exposure, and emergency room visits as well as early exposure to narcotic pain medications and subsequent drug tolerance, resistance or even addiction. This text presents a clear history of physician and patient understanding and awareness of endometriosis in adolescents. It lays the groundwork for this condition with background information on endometriosis in general followed by a more focused look at endometriosis in adolescents. Leading experts in the field provide chapters on the different locations where endometriotic lesions can present in adolescents as well as identified risk factors and concomitant diseases of which it is important to be aware. In addition to the clinical presentation, this book also provides information on breaking down existing barriers, such as stigma, and current activism and awareness of this condition. Adolescent Endometriosis is a first-of-its-kind text that focuses exclusively on endometriosis in the adolescent population. Written by experts in the field, this book is a comprehensive resource for clinicians in all medical disciplines that treat adolescent age girls.
Download or read book The Book of the Damned written by Charles Fort and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Time travel, UFOs, mysterious planets, stigmata, rock-throwing poltergeists, huge footprints, bizarre rains of fish and frogs-nearly a century after Charles Fort's Book of the Damned was originally published, the strange phenomenon presented in this book remains largely unexplained by modern science. Through painstaking research and a witty, sarcastic style, Fort captures the imagination while exposing the flaws of popular scientific explanations. Virtually all of his material was compiled and documented from reports published in reputable journals, newspapers and periodicals because he was an avid collector. Charles Fort was somewhat of a recluse who spent most of his spare time researching these strange events and collected these reports from publications sent to him from around the globe. This was the first of a series of books he created on unusual and unexplained events and to this day it remains the most popular. If you agree that truth is often stranger than fiction, then this book is for you"--Taken from Good Reads website.
