Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Minnesota State Medical Association and the Northwestern Lancet, 1906, Vol. 25: A Semimonthly Medical Journal Dr. Lyman skeen, In: I have seen a good deal of work along this line, and will agree with others that the case is surgical, and it is not an uncommon thing to resort to total extirpation of the sack. Many cases of this type are very refractory, and a relief of the con dition entirely is not uncommon. Dr. A. E. Lyons: As Dr. Brick says, I think he does right in those cases in using large probes. Many of our cases of such stricture can be opened up and cured by the use of Bowman's probes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Transactions of the State Medical Society of Kansas 1888 Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by State Medical Society of Kansas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the State Medical Society of Kansas, 1888, Vol. 2 The State considers the minds and morals of its children a part of its capital, and compels their development, taxing its wealth to secure the means. How can it consistently refuse or neglect to enact laws for the protection of the powers thus developed Oi what use to the State are developed minds in unsound or dead bodies? N 0 one has a right to destroy the capital of the State. A man can not burn his own house; much more he cannot destroy the body and mind of a citizen. Can the State then, consistently permit the exist ence of causes which will destroy both - causes which she has power to remove, but over which the citizen in his individual capacity is power less? The State is bound by its relations to its people, and by its own interests to extend the necessary protection. Only a part of any human life is productive, and a portion of that is lost to the State by the necessity which compels it to provide for the unproductive portion. In an ideal state of society, three-eighths are under twenty years of age, nve-eighths between twenty and seventy, and one eighth over seventy. A little over one-half is productive, but this is only an ideal condition. Many die under twenty, and many who reach twenty die under seventy. In the United States the productive class varies from 47 to 56 per cent., the lowest being in Georgia and the highest in Massachusetts. Of the non-producing minors 35 per cent. Die under twenty, before they reach the productive period. The cost of these non-productive lives to the productive, is estimated at not less than fifty dollars per year. At ten years they have cost $500, and at twenty, all of which is lost by death. Thus in their economic relations to the State, we are enabled to estimate the enormous loss of 85 per cent. Of the youth destroyed every year by scarlatina, diphtheria, small-pox, and other largely preventable diseases, but who will calculate the suffering and sorrow, the sighs and tears? Who will measure the agony of soul endured by those who are called to consign to the silent tomb these treasures of the heart?

Download or read book When Abortion Was a Crime written by Leslie J. Reagan and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive history of abortion in the United States, with a new preface that equips readers for what’s to come. When Abortion Was a Crime is the must-read book on abortion history. Originally published ahead of the thirtieth anniversary of Roe v. Wade, this award-winning study was the first to examine the entire period during which abortion was illegal in the United States, beginning in the mid-nineteenth century and ending with that monumental case in 1973. When Abortion Was a Crime is filled with intimate stories and nuanced analysis, demonstrating how abortion was criminalized and policed—and how millions of women sought abortions regardless of the law. With this edition, Leslie J. Reagan provides a new preface that addresses the dangerous and ongoing threats to abortion access across the country, and the precarity of our current moment. While abortions have typically been portrayed as grim "back alley" operations, this deeply researched history confirms that many abortion providers—including physicians—practiced openly and safely, despite prohibitions by the state and the American Medical Association. Women could find cooperative and reliable practitioners; but prosecution, public humiliation, loss of privacy, and inferior medical care were a constant threat. Reagan's analysis of previously untapped sources, including inquest records and trial transcripts, shows the fragility of patient rights and raises provocative questions about the relationship between medicine and law. With the right to abortion increasingly under attack, this book remains the definitive history of abortion in the United States, offering vital lessons for every American concerned with health care, civil liberties, and personal and sexual freedom.
Download or read book The Adult Learner written by Malcolm S. Knowles and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve.

The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website.

Download or read book Colleges of Agriculture at the Land Grant Universities written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-10-27 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although few Americans work as farmers these days, agriculture on the whole remains economically importantâ€"playing a key role in such contemporary issues as consumer health and nutrition, worker safety and animal welfare, and environmental protection. This publication provides a comprehensive picture of the primary education system for the nation's agriculture industry: the land grant colleges of agriculture. Colleges of Agriculture at the Land Grant Universities informs the public debate about the challenges that will shape the future of these colleges and serves as a foundation for a second volume, which will present recommendations for policy and institutional changes in the land grant system. This book reviews the legislative history of the land grant system from its establishment in 1862 to the 1994 act conferring land grant status on Native American colleges. It describes trends that have shaped agriculture and agricultural education over the decadesâ€"the shift of labor from farm to factory, reasons for and effects of increased productivity and specialization, the rise of the corporate farm, and more. The committee reviews the system's three-part missionâ€"education, research, and extension serviceâ€"and through this perspective documents the changing nature of funding and examines the unique structure of the U.S. agricultural research and education system. Demographic data on faculties, students, extension staff, commodity and funding clusters, and geographic specializations profile the system and identify similarities and differences among the colleges of agriculture, trends in funding, and a host of other issues. The tables in the appendix provide further itemization about general population distribution, student and educator demographics, types of degree programs, and funding allocations. Concise commentary and informative graphics augment the detailed statistical presentations. This book will be important to policymakers, administrators, educators, researchers, and students of agriculture.

Download or read book Ladies Book of Etiquette and Manual of Polit ness written by Florence Hartley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1860 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do unto others as you would others should do to you. You can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind, for what lady likes to be treated rudely? True Christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others, and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette, you will never be im polite. Politeness, founded upon such a rule, becomes the expression, in graceful manner, of social virtues. The spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies, which are meant both to please others and ourselves, and to make others pleased with us ;a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice; the.re can be no true, politeness without kindness, purity, singleness of heart, and sensibility. Many believe that politeness is but a mask worn in the world to conceal bad passions and impulses, and to make a show of possessing virtues not really existing in the heart; thus, that politeness is merely hypocrisy and dissimulation. Do not believe this; be certain that those who profess such a doctrine are practising themselves the deceit they condemn so much.
Download or read book Unequal Treatment written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-02-06 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racial and ethnic disparities in health care are known to reflect access to care and other issues that arise from differing socioeconomic conditions. There is, however, increasing evidence that even after such differences are accounted for, race and ethnicity remain significant predictors of the quality of health care received. In Unequal Treatment, a panel of experts documents this evidence and explores how persons of color experience the health care environment. The book examines how disparities in treatment may arise in health care systems and looks at aspects of the clinical encounter that may contribute to such disparities. Patients' and providers' attitudes, expectations, and behavior are analyzed. How to intervene? Unequal Treatment offers recommendations for improvements in medical care financing, allocation of care, availability of language translation, community-based care, and other arenas. The committee highlights the potential of cross-cultural education to improve provider-patient communication and offers a detailed look at how to integrate cross-cultural learning within the health professions. The book concludes with recommendations for data collection and research initiatives. Unequal Treatment will be vitally important to health care policymakers, administrators, providers, educators, and students as well as advocates for people of color.
