Book excerpt: With Blood Image, Paul Anderson shows that the symbol of a man can be just as important as the man himself. Turner Ashby was one of the most famous fighting men of the Civil War. Rising to colonel of the 7th Virginia Cavalry, Ashby fought brilliantly under Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson during the 1862 Shenandoah Valley campaign until he died in battle. Anderson demonstrates that Ashby's image -- a catalytic, mesmerizing, and often contradictory combination of southern antebellum cultural ideals and wartime hopes and fears -- emerged during his own lifetime and was not a later creation of the Lost Cause. The stylistic synergy of Anderson's startling narrative design fuels a poignant irony: men like Ashby -- a chivalrous, charismatic "knight" who had difficulty complying with Stonewall Jackson's authority -- become trapped by the desire to have their real lives reflect their imagined ones.

Download or read book Image of the Risen Christ written by Kenneth E. Stevenson and published by Dr. Kenneth Stevenson. This book was released on 2000-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1978 to 1981 a well-equipped group of twenty five American scientists formed the Shread of Turin Research Project (STURP). Thousands of hours were spent conducting the most extensive tests ever performed on a historical artifact. The official spokesperson for the group was former U.S. Air force Captain, and pastor/teacher, Dr. Kenneth E. Stevenson. Millions of Christians became intensely interested in the Shroud when photographs of the negative image were published in books, magazines and news papers all over the world. -- Dr. Stevenson previously co-authored the international best selling title, Verdict on the Shroud. His new book, Image of the Risen Christ, discusses the mysterious history of the burial cloth of Christ and uncovers recent scientific discoveries about the image of the man in the Shroud. This book deals with the Shroud as possible evidence of the Resurrection and what significance this could have to Christians entering the new millennium. -- The Shroud has been subjected to over 150,000 hours of scientific testing. The results of these tests will astonish you. -- Why have Israel's top scientists recently declared that the Shroud originated in Jerusalem and that it must have been woven before A.D. 760? -- How can history, art, legend, science, and religious tradition confirm the truth about the Shroud? -- The multiple blood stains on the Shroud are actually human blood. Could these stains be the blood of Jesus of Nazareth? -- Why does a remarkable historical document of the early Christian church refer directly to something mysterious about the burial cloth of Jesus?Brilliantly offers possible conclusions about the origin of the Shroud. -- Isthe Shroud a result of brilliant human deception? -- Is the Shroud a freak occurrence of nature? -- Is science and religion at war over this artifact?

  • Author : Keith Wailoo
  • Publisher : JHU Press
  • Release : 2002-10-15
  • ISBN : 0801870291
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book Drawing Blood written by Keith Wailoo and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2002-10-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How physicians in this century wielded medical technology to define disease, carve out medical specialties, and shape political agendas. Winner of the American Public Health Association Arthur Viseltear Prize In Drawing Blood, medical historian Keith Wailoo uses the story of blood diseases to explain how physicians in this century wielded medical technology to define disease, carve out medical specialties, and shape political agendas. As Wailoo's account makes clear, the seemingly straightforward process of identifying disease is invariably influenced by personal, professional, and social factors—and as a result produces not only clarity and precision but also bias and outright error. Drawing Blood reveals the ways in which physicians and patients as well as the diseases themselves are simultaneously shaping and being shaped by technology, medical professionalization, and society at large. This thought-provoking cultural history of disease, medicine, and technology offers an important perspective for current discussions of HIV and AIDS, genetic blood testing, prostate-specific antigen, and other important issues in an age of technological medicine. "Makes clear that the high stakes involved in medical technology are not just financial, but moral and far reaching. They have been harnessed to describe clinical phenomena and to reflect social and cultural realities that influence not only medical treatment but self-identity, power, and authority."—Susan E. Lederer, H-Net Humanities & Social Sciences On Line "Wailoo's masterful study of hematology and its disease discourse is a model of interdisciplinarity, combining cultural analysis, social history, and the history of medical ideas and technology to produce a complex narrative of disease definition, diagnosis, and treatment . . . He reminds us that medical technology is a neutral artifact of history. It can be, and has been, used to clarify and to cloud the understanding of disease, and it has the potential both to constrain and to emancipate its subjects."—Regina Morantz-Sanchez, Journal of Interdisciplinary History

  • Release : 1997
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 548 pages

Download or read book Image Processing written by Jonathan M. Blackledge and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital image processing technology has developed markedly over the last ten years, and more and more information is being conveyed through its display and analysis. The way in which image data is stored and processed is fundamental to all aspects of information technology. Examples include remote sensing using digital satellites; making diagnoses using conventional X-ray computed tomography; and research into the behavior of the human brain using magnetic resonance imaging. This book consists of twenty-one papers that collectively cover a broad range of image processing problems and the way in which their solutions are used in different areas of science and technology. The papers present details of the ways computers of varying processing power can be programmed to store images efficiently, resolve features and patterns that are either time consuming or impossible for humans to interpret, and develop machines that can "see" like humans. They also discuss a wide range of applications, including the use of lasers for studying dynamic behavior of mechanical components, and fractal geometry for recognizing patterns. The book will be useful to any engineer, scientist, and technologist interested in current research issues in image processing.
