Excerpt: ...in passing urine, the oatheter must be employed. Great care must be taken to avoid infection. The catheter should be kept immersed in a solution of one part formalin to 200 parts water. A pint jar full of the solution may be kept for the purpose. After use the catheter should be thoroughly washcd, then placed in the jar, and the top screwed tight, till again needed for use. If formalin is not obtainable, strong, hot soapsuds may be successfully used. The water should be saturated with soap, and at a temperature near the boiling point. The catheter should be left in this solution for ten minutes before using. Before introducing the catheter, the hands and the genitals should be thoroughly washed with warm, strong soapsuds. The catheter should be passed very gently, care being takento avoid undue pressure or violence of any sort. The improper use of the catheter often gives rise to inflammation of the urethra, to acute cystitis, and chronic catarrh of the bladder, which greatly aggravates the difficulties which arise from enlargement of the prostate. The inflammation is likely to extend to the ureters and the kidneys, and may terminate fatally; indeed, a fatal termination occurs through involvement of the kidneys in a great majority of these cases, after years of suffering. When the obstruction is so great that the bladder cannot be entirely emptied without the catheter, surgi cal interference is, in most cases, positively required. ' The great improvements which have been made in this branch of surgery within the last few years offer very great hope, and every person suffering in this way should have the benefit of the advice of a skilled specialist in this department of surgery. The improvement of surgical methods makes it possible to...
Download or read book No Place of Grace written by T. J. Jackson Lears and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1994-06-15 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T. J. Jackson Lears draws on a wealth of primary sources — sermons, diaries, letters — as well as novels, poems, and essays to explore the origins of turn-of-the-century American antimodernism. He examines the retreat to the exotic, the pursuit of intense physical or spiritual experiences, and the search for cultural self-sufficiency through the Arts and Crafts movement. Lears argues that their antimodern impulse, more pervasive than historians have supposed, was not "simple escapism," but reveals some enduring and recurring tensions in American culture. "It's an understatement to call No Place of Grace a brilliant book. . . . It's the first clear sign I've seen that my generation, after marching through the '60s and jogging through the '70s might be pausing to examine what we've learned, and to teach it."—Walter Kendrick, Village Voice "One can justly make the claim that No Place of Grace restores and reinterprets a crucial part of American history. Lears's method is impeccable."—Ann Douglas, The Nation

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Threshold of Manhood: A Young Man's Words to Young Men The two things most needed at such a time are the friendly aid of a thoroughly honest and manly piety, and, if possible, the social rallying-point of Christian club or home life. It is a question which religious households in great cities should discuss, whether it is not their bounden duty to open their doors freely to this crowd of young strangers who surround them; for to be cut off from the society of good women in the early stage of manhood is an unspeakable mis fortune. It is a yet more urgent question whether the Churches Should not provide in every city social centres for young manhood. I do not mean one or two huge institutions such as we now possess. I mean numerous homes and clubs, where young men coming up in search of Situations could find help, welcome, and accommodation, and where after business hours they could gather in genial social intercourse. Some social stimulant the young nature craves, and must have. If the Churches do not provide it, the music-hall will. I make no apology for the nature of these addresses. They retain the form of spoken counsels and appeals. Except by the occasional alteration of a phrase I have not attempted to recast them into a more literary mould. I simply seek by their publication a yet larger congregation than any I have talked with face to face. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Mornings on Horseback written by David McCullough and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-05-31 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Book Award–winning biography that tells the story of how young Teddy Roosevelt transformed himself from a sickly boy into the vigorous man who would become a war hero and ultimately president of the United States, told by master historian David McCullough. Mornings on Horseback is the brilliant biography of the young Theodore Roosevelt. Hailed as “a masterpiece” (John A. Gable, Newsday), it is the winner of the Los Angeles Times 1981 Book Prize for Biography and the National Book Award for Biography. Written by David McCullough, the author of Truman, this is the story of a remarkable little boy, seriously handicapped by recurrent and almost fatal asthma attacks, and his struggle to manhood: an amazing metamorphosis seen in the context of the very uncommon household in which he was raised. The father is the first Theodore Roosevelt, a figure of unbounded energy, enormously attractive and selfless, a god in the eyes of his small, frail namesake. The mother, Mittie Bulloch Roosevelt, is a Southerner and a celebrated beauty, but also considerably more, which the book makes clear as never before. There are sisters Anna and Corinne, brother Elliott (who becomes the father of Eleanor Roosevelt), and the lovely, tragic Alice Lee, TR’s first love. All are brought to life to make “a beautifully told story, filled with fresh detail” (The New York Times Book Review). A book to be read on many levels, it is at once an enthralling story, a brilliant social history and a work of important scholarship which does away with several old myths and breaks entirely new ground. It is a book about life intensely lived, about family love and loyalty, about grief and courage, about “blessed” mornings on horseback beneath the wide blue skies of the Badlands.

Download or read book Human All Too Human A Book for Free Spirits written by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Friedrich Nietzsche's seminal work; "Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits" - first published in 1878. It constitutes the first work in his signature aphoristic style, discussing many different concepts in brief paragraphs and sentences. The 638 aphorisms are divided into nine sections by subject, with a short poem as an epilogue. This fantastic book is highly recommended for students of philosophy, and is not to be missed by fans of Nietzsche's work. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844 - 1900) was a German philosopher, poet, composer, and scholar. He wrote numerous critical essays on morality, culture, philosophy, science, and religion - radically questioning the value and objectivity of truth. Many antiquarian texts such as this, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
Download or read book James Madison written by Lynne Cheney and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major new biography of the fourth U.S. president, from New York Times–bestselling author Lynne Cheney James Madison was a true genius of the early republic, the leader who did more than any other to create the nation we know today. This majestic new biography tells his story. Outwardly reserved, Madison was the intellectual driving force behind the Constitution. His visionary political philosophy—eloquently presented in the Federalist Papers—was a crucial factor behind the Constitution’s ratification, and his political savvy was of major importance in getting the new government underway. As secretary of state under Thomas Jefferson, he managed the Louisiana Purchase, doubling the size of the United States. As president, Madison led the country in its first war under the Constitution, the War of 1812. Without precedent to guide him, he would demonstrate that a republic could defend its honor and independence while remaining true to its young constitution.
Download or read book Mein Kampf written by Adolf Hitler and published by ببلومانيا للنشر والتوزيع. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madman, tyrant, animal—history has given Adolf Hitler many names. In Mein Kampf (My Struggle), often called the Nazi bible, Hitler describes his life, frustrations, ideals, and dreams. Born to an impoverished couple in a small town in Austria, the young Adolf grew up with the fervent desire to become a painter. The death of his parents and outright rejection from art schools in Vienna forced him into underpaid work as a laborer. During the First World War, Hitler served in the infantry and was decorated for bravery. After the war, he became actively involved with socialist political groups and quickly rose to power, establishing himself as Chairman of the National Socialist German Worker's party. In 1924, Hitler led a coalition of nationalist groups in a bid to overthrow the Bavarian government in Munich. The infamous Munich "Beer-hall putsch" was unsuccessful, and Hitler was arrested. During the nine months he was in prison, an embittered and frustrated Hitler dictated a personal manifesto to his loyal follower Rudolph Hess. He vented his sentiments against communism and the Jewish people in this document, which was to become Mein Kampf, the controversial book that is seen as the blue-print for Hitler's political and military campaign. In Mein Kampf, Hitler describes his strategy for rebuilding Germany and conquering Europe. It is a glimpse into the mind of a man who destabilized world peace and pursued the genocide now known as the Holocaust.
