Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Essays on the Antiquity and Races of Man The popular but inaccurate expression of this scientific conviction is that man is descended from the monkeys, but that a link has been lost in the chain of descent: the famous missing link. In a loose way this statement re ects modern scientific Opinion; but it certainly is partly erroneous. Probably not a, single living authority maintains today that man is descended from any species of monkey now living. What students during the past sixty years have more and more come to be convinced of, was already foreshadowed by Darwina namely that man and the apes are both descended from a common ancestor. This common ancestor may be described as a primitive Primate. Who differed in a good many details both from the monkeys and from man. And who has long since become extinct. The Situation may be clarified by two diagrams. The first diagram represents the inaccurate popular View which puts the monkey at the bottom of the line of descent, man at the top, and the missing link in the middle of the straight line. The illogicality ef believing that our origin occurred in this manner is apparent as soon as one re ects that according to this scheme the monkey at the beginning and man at the end of the line still survive, whereas the missing link, which is supposed to have connected them, has become extinct.

Book excerpt: Henry E. Sigerist (1891-1957) is known as the most influential medical historian in the first half of the 20th century. More than that he was a scholar of an unusually broad spectrum of activities. 50 years after his death he is still the subject of publications. During his active life in Zurich, Leipzig, Baltimore, and again in Switzerland he exchanged letters with some 300 correspondents of all walks of cultural life. The letters to Sigerist as well as the copies of his own letters are preserved in near completeness, a fact that allowed an unabridged and annotated edition. This volume contains Sigerist's correspondences with the architect of American medicine, William H. Welch, the pioneer brain surgeon, Harvey Cushing, the medical bibliographer, Fielding H. Garrison, and the medical historian, Erwin H. Ackerknecht. The letters allow insight into the correspondents' biographies and activities, their private lives, and relationships between persons, topics, and books. They also reflect the eventful time of the mid-20th century. To each of the four correspondences is added an introduction and indices of literary works and of persons mentioned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If a religion cannot attract and instruct young people, it will struggle to survive, which is why recreational programs were second only to theological questions in the development of twentieth-century Mormonism. In this book, Richard Ian Kimball explores how Mormon leaders used recreational programs to ameliorate the problems of urbanization and industrialization and to inculcate morals and values in LDS youth. As well as promoting sports as a means of physical and spiritual excellence, Progressive Era Mormons established a variety of institutions such as the Deseret Gymnasium and camps for girls and boys, all designed to compete with more "worldly" attractions and to socialize adolescents into the faith. Kimball employs a wealth of source material including periodicals, diaries, journals, personal papers, and institutional records to illuminate this hitherto underexplored aspect of the LDS church. In addition to uncovering the historical roots of many Mormon institutions still visible today, Sports in Zion is a detailed look at the broader functions of recreation in society.
