Excerpt from The Journal of the Michigan State Medical Society, 1905, Vol. 3 While this method is simple in technic yet it is thoroughly efficient and requires no special apparatus other than the liga ture itself - accomplishing the desired re sult in reasonable and sufficient time, at the same time fulfilling all the require ments of such an operation under almost all conditions. The wider education of operators and surgeons in the technic of this operation will result, I firmlv believe, in its widened and widening use.

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?

Excerpt from Transactions of the Mississippi Valley Medical Association, Vol. 2: Twenty-Sixth Annual Session Held at Asheville, N. C., October 9, 10 and 11, 1900 The gallbladder was as large as a hen's egg and contained thirty-five strongly faceted stones varying from one - sixteenth to one-half inch in diameter. They had evidently been ex posed to friction for a long time. One stone, one-fourth inch in diameter, was in the common duct. By inserting small dressing forceps and dilating the biliary duct, pressing the common duct between finger and thumb, it was possible to shove the stone back into the gallbladder and remove it. The gallbladder was attached to the peritoneum and drained. The patient made a normal recovery, leaving the hospital five and one-half weeks from the date of Operation. Case No. 7386. - This patient came under my care at the Augustana Hospital, March 20, 1900, and is a married woman of 34, with a good family history. History - Was always well as a child. Menstruation com menced at the age of 15 and was regular and painless. She was married at the age of 22; had one pregnancy at the age of 24, but miscarried at five and one-half months. Her health was impaired for six months following this experience. Eight years ago she began to be troubled with slight attacks of col icky pain in the region of the epigastrium. These pains con tinned for about one-half hour and were frequently repeated during the period following, at intervals of from one week to a month. These attacks were supposed to be due to gastric disturbances. She was then well for a year and a half, when the attacks returned with greater severity. They have per sisted ever since. When the patient has been confined to liquid diet she has felt fairly well, but on attempting to eat solids she has invariably suffered. During all this time she has been under treatment for gastric disturbances. One year ago she examined her stools after one of her attacks and found several gallstones. Since this time she has taken olive oil at intervals and has always felt better for it. During the past six months she has noticed some pain in the right inguinal region. Previously her pain had always been confined to the region of the epigastrium. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.
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 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner, or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.
