While orthopaedics means 'to raise a child straight' - this book sheds light on the formation of the modern specialty, and by doing so explores the process of professional boundary formation.

Book excerpt: An in depth analysis of the history of orthopaedic surgery in the United States, with a focus on how this specialty formed. This book was released on with total page pages.

Faust the first part of the tragedy7/5/2023 The language is often striking and gorgeous and only one small segment made me go huh? (The Walpurgis Night's Dream with the Wedding of Oberon and Titania, which didn't seem to contribute to the plot or theme.) Mephistopheles first shows up by Faust's side as a poodle, and he helps a lot in cutting a lot of Faust's often high-flown language with his acid sarcasm, and I actually found a lot of humor in the first part of the poem-such as the scene where Martha flirted with Mephistopheles. I really got a kick out of recognizing the inspiration for Gounod's "Jewel Song" and Schubert's "Gretchen at her Spinning Wheel." Most of those adaptations only deal with Part One of the two part work, and for good reason. Operas by Gounod and Boito, an oratorio by Berlioz and German lied by Schubert and Schumann among other works were adapted from from Goethe. A lot of the of the plot and even some lines were familiar to me from classical music. Indeed, there are to my ear echoes of Milton-and The Book of Job for that matter-in the Prologue where God and the devil Mephistopheles have a discussion that results in putting the soul of Faust into play. Although it's been staged, Goethe's Faust is described as a "dramatic poem" and at least in the translation I've read (Walter Kaufman for Part One) reads much more to me like Milton than Shakespeare. Herodotus the histories book7/5/2023 Now the Egyptians, before the time when Psammetichos became king over them, were wont to suppose that they had come into being first of all men but since the time when Psammetichos having become king desired to know what men had come into being first, they suppose that the Phrygians came into being before themselves, but they themselves before all other men. Alfie kohn parenting7/4/2023 in the social sciences from the University of Chicago in Illinois in 1980. from Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island in 1979, having created his own interdisciplinary course of study, and an M.A. Kohn's challenges to widely accepted theories and practices have made him a controversial figure, particularly with behaviorists, conservatives, and those who defend the practices he calls into question, such as the use of competition, incentive programs, conventional discipline, standardized testing, grades, homework, and traditional schooling. He is a proponent of progressive education and has offered critiques of many traditional aspects of parenting, managing, and American society more generally, drawing in each case from social science research.

Polar Star by Martin Cruz Smith7/4/2023 A docking by the Polar Star at the American base of Dutch Harbor brings a second attempt and reveals a mortal enemy-Karp Korobetz, a hard-core criminal whom Arkady arrested for murder years before in Moscow and who now locks Arkady into a burning cabin. Troubles crowd in at once: pressure from the Ship's political officer to declare the murder an accident or suicide resentment by crews both Yank and Russian of Arkady's bulldogged questioning a scary attempt by unknown assasilants on Arkady's life by locking him into a deep-freezer. When the stabbed body of female crew member Zina Patiashvili surfaces with the fishing nets, the ship's captain asks reluctant Arkady to investigate. Tossed into a psychiatric ward for the "political unreliability" he evinced in Gorky Park, Arkady has escaped to Siberia and is now toiling on the "slime line" of a giant floating food-processing plant, part of a joint Soviet-US venture in the Bering Strait. A Gorky Park sequel that finds Arkady Renko, disgraced Moscow cop-hero of that 1981 best seller, hiding out on a Russian factory ship (the Polar Star)-and up to his dour ears in an intricately textured but slow-drifting mess of murder, drug smuggling, and political intrigue.

As they step out of the palace, Sita asks: “How much further to the forest?” It is said that at this, Rama’s eyes moistened for the first time. His young wife Sita insists on accompanying him, against his better counsel. In the Indian epic Ramayana, there is a poignant scene: Rama, the prince of Ayodhya, is forced to renounce his kingdom and go to the forest for fourteen years. Touching on the lives of nearly 100 diplomatic wives (as well as sisters and daughters), Daughters of Britannia is a brilliant and compelling account of more than three centuries of British diplomacy as seen through the eyes of some of its most intrepid but least heralded participants. Drawing on letters, private journals, and memoirs, as well as contemporary oral history, Katie Hickman explores not only the public pomp and glamour of diplomatic life but also the most intimate, private face of this most fascinating and mysterious world. Yet, despite serving such crucial roles, the vast majority of these women are entirely unknown to history. Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, Vita Sackville-West, and Lady Diana Cooper are among the well-known wives of diplomats who represented Britain in the far-flung corners of the globe. In an absorbing mixture of poignant biography and wonderfully entertaining social history, Daughters of Britannia offers the story of diplomatic life as it has never been told before. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm - that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. And Lucifer said, “Let us rise against Him now in all our numbers, and pull the walls of heaven down…” Joshua whitehead love after the end7/4/2023 I will try not to make this mistake with Love after the End, however, because this collection is too important for our current time period. So sometimes, I end up not saying much at all whenever I read anthologies. When everything happens at once in my head, it may feel like a delightful chorus of voices, but to commit something to paper means that I risk hierarchizing the stories, favouring some details over others, and by implication, some authors, some narratives, and some perspectives over others. The problem with this method of review is linear time. The urgency to talk about everyone’s work, as fast as possible, inevitably starts to feel like a mission that I mustn’t fail. This is especially the case for anthologies that deal with the end of the world, as Love after the End does. The multiplicity of stories often means a multiplicity of narrative voices, and any time I sit down to write a review it feels as if someone has shouted “fire” in the theatre of my brain, and everything I want to say is running towards the exits. An overflow of sentiments and thoughts often happens when I review anthologies. I have a lot of things to say about Joshua Whitehead’s Love after the End: An Anthology of Two-Spirit and Indigiqueer Speculative Fiction. |
