Book Anaesthesia and the Practice of Medicine  Historical Perspectives

Download or read book Anaesthesia and the Practice of Medicine Historical Perspectives written by Keith Sykes and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-20 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two anaesthetists, one British and one American, this unique book focuses on the transatlantic story of anaesthesia. The authors have both worked at the two hospitals where the first general anaesthetics for surgery were given in 1846, Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts and University College Hospital, London. Each with more than fifty years' experience of working in anaesthesia, they combine their knowledge and expertise to offer a fresh outlook on the development of anaesthesia through the ages. This highly informative and intriguing text details the origins of anaesthesia, outlines the different techniques of anaesthesia and traces its progress with illuminating and enlightening commentaries. This is a fascinating book which considers the role key figures have played in developing anaesthesia including, Queen Victoria, William Morris, La Condamine, Bjorn Ibsen and Henry Beecher. Broken down into four sections, which are divided into easy-to-read chapters and filled with top quality photographs, this book makes compelling reading. It is recommended to all those interested in the history and development of medicine through the ages, and is of particular interest to anaesthetists. More than just the science of anaesthesia, this is the story about the people and personalities who have made anaesthesia what it is today.

Book A Boxing Legacy

Download or read book A Boxing Legacy written by Ian Phimister and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-02-04 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long-overdue tribute to legendary African American sportswriter and boxing cartoonist Ted Carroll. Ted Carroll was one of the greatest American artists and sportswriters of the twentieth century, most notably as a boxing cartoonist and journalist. As a Black man working in an era when boxing was one of the few outlets where Black athletes could achieve wealth, success, and recognition, Carroll’s commentary on the sport provides a profound perspective on race and the history of boxing. In A Boxing Legacy: The Life and Works of Writer and Cartoonist Ted Carroll, Ian Phimister and David Patrick celebrate Carroll’s extraordinary achievements as a sports cartoonist, illustrator, painter, and writer. Beginning with an introduction to Carroll’s life and times, Phimister and Patrick then dive into Carroll’s work, reproducing 44 of his best articles contributed to The Ring magazine—the bible of boxing. Arranged thematically, each section of articles includes an overview discussing the selections and providing valuable historical context. Included in the collection is the significant series “The American Black Man in Boxing,” which explores race, sport, and society. Ted Carroll’s insightful articles illuminate the place of boxing in twentieth-century sport and society with incredible skill and care. The first extended account of Ted Carroll’s life and works, and profusely illustrated with his brilliant drawings, A Boxing Legacy finally provides the deserved recognition to a remarkable artist and author who has been overlooked for far too long.
