Dian Hanson
History of Men`s Magazines: Volume 4: 1960s Under the Counter

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Open your notebooks, sharpen your pencils, and get ready for a history lesson like none you`ve ever experienced. You`re about to learn everything you could ever want to know about the world history of men`s magazines-not magazines about sports, not fashion, not hunting or fishing or how to build a birdhouse in ten easy steps, but those titillating periodicals embracing the subject dearest to all heterosexual men`s hearts and other body parts: the undraped female form. Former men`s magazine editor Dian Hanson traces its development from 1900 to 1980 in six massive and informative volumes. Why two volumes on the 1960s? Because when men`s magazines were finally accepted on the newsstands something had to fill their old niche under the counter. On the cusp of the sixties a new breed of men`s magazine emerged in Southern California. Made in smaller print-runs, aimed at more specific markets, these new magazines, called `slicks` for the thick glossy paper they were printed on,… [detailed...]

Alexander Del Mar
History of Monetary Systems

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book covers the history of money and finance. It is the result of fifteen years of research by the author, Alexander Del Mar, in great libraries and coin collections of Europe. He traced the historical development in all ages of which any coinage or other numismatic remains exist. He reveals in the great states of antiquity that money was a pillar of the constitution, its usage, its meaning in different countries at different times and how private coinage originated. It describes it`s physical component and the discussion about its value, whether the value of money constitutes the metal or paper from which it is made or its numerical relation, and what governmental body should control this.

History of Organ and Cell Transplantation

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOrgan transplantation is the greatest therapeutic advancement of the second half of the 20th century. Of all medical specialities, the pioneers of transplantation make up the largest number of experts awarded with, or nominated for the Nobel Prize. Over the years, transplantation has fascinated the scientific community as well as the general public for a variety of reasons: o The development of transplantation has involved almost all medical specialties. In the history of medicine, there is perhaps no other example of such extensive co-operation and exchange of knowledge and experience among basic scientists, surgeons and physicians in achieving a common goal. o The progress of transplantation has forced doctors to `rewrite` medical textbooks dealing with a great spectrum of post-transplantation issues, such as the physiology of transplanted organs, the recurrence of initial disease in the transplanted organs, and the complications arising from… [detailed...]

History of Psychiatry and Medical Psychology: With an Epilogue on Mind-Body and Psychiatry

2008 y.
Publisher: Springer
Description: The Romans knew that Nero was insane. Shakespeare`s Macbeth asked his doctor to treat `a mind diseased.` The physicians of the Enlightenment era pondered whether the inmates in the asylums were mad or simply bad. As a discipline, psychiatry has always walked a fine if not easily defined line between social and biological science. `History of Psychiatry and Medical Psychology` traces this evolution in its social, political, and philosophical contexts, charting the rise of psychology as a legitimate field of scientific pursuit, and of psychiatry as a medical specialty. An interdisciplinary team of noted historians (including Sander Gilman, Dora Weiner, Hannah Decker, and the recently deceased dean of American psychiatric history, George Mora, M.D.) has distilled centuries of history-protracted debates, false starts, and missteps included-resulting in an engaging and inspiring narrative of history and methodology in the making. -The birth of brain science in antiquity,… [detailed...]

History of Regional Science and the Regional Science Association International : The Beginnings and Early History

Description: Book DescriptionThe book portrays how a new unique social science field of study evolved and describes the formation of a society associated with the field. It starts with the rise of Hitler, the advent of the Keynesian Revolution, the intense mathematization of economics and relates how an individual`s creative thinking, later supplemented by that of others, was able to effectively combat the strong resistance of conventional social sciences-economics and geography in particular to attain full scale recognition as a basic social science area covering the sorely neglected theoretical and related applied analysis of spatial, locational and regional phenomena. It depicts the first stage of development in North America, then because of demonstrated applied findings on problems where only theory and just talk existed in economics and geography, spread rapidly into Europe, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea and Latin America, and recently into Indonesia and China and elsewhere….

Description: Livy`s only extant work is part of his history of Rome from the foundation of the city to 9 BCE. Of its 142 books, we have just 35, and short summaries of all the rest except two.

Of the rest only fragments and the summaries remain. In splendid style Livy, a man of wide sympathies and proud of Rome`s past, presented an uncritical but clear and living narrative of the rise of Rome to greatness. [detailed...]

History of Scottish Economic Thought (Routledge History of Economic Thought)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Modern economics has at its foundation scholarly contributions from many prominent Scottish thinkers. The History of Scottish Economic Thought examines the roots of this great tradition, places in perspective a selection of authors and assesses their contribution over three centuries in the light of a distinctive Scottish approach to economics. Scottish Enlightenment thought more widely is an established area of research interest. This volume offers new scholarship on key Enlightenment figures, but the emphasis is on the approach to economic thought which developed in that period and continued through to the twentieth century. Smith and Hume may be key figures, but other less familiar authors are also of substantial interest as economic thinkers, and include a murderer, a revolutionary, a medical practitioner and a novelist (John Law, Sir James Stuart, John Rae and Shield Nicholson, respectively). Also included in the volume are discussions of Francis Hutchison, James… [detailed...]

History of Semiconductor Engineering

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: When basic researchers started working on semiconductors during the late nineteen thirties and on integrated circuits at the end of the nineteen fifties, they did not know that their work would change the lives of future generations. Very few people at that time recognized the significance of, perhaps, the most important invention of the century. Historians have assigned the invention of integrated circuits to Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce. In this book, the author argues that the group of inventors was much larger. This richly illustrated account is a personal recollection of the development of integrated circuits and personalities – such as Russell Ohl, Karl Lark-Horovitz, William Shockley, Carl Frosch, Lincoln Derick, Calvin Fuller, Kurt Lehovec. Jean Hoerni, Sheldon Roberts, Jay Last, Isy Haas, Bob Norman, Dave Allison, Jim Nall, Tom Longo, Bob Widlar, Dave Talbert, Frank Wanlass, and Federico Faggin. Here is the first comprehensive behind-the-scenes account of the history… [detailed...]

Description: Important new insights into how various components and systems evolved Premised on the idea that one cannot know a science without knowing its history, History of Wireless offers a lively new treatment that introduces previously unacknowledged pioneers and developments, setting a new standard for understanding the evolution of this important technology. Starting with the background-magnetism, electricity, light, and Maxwell`s Electromagnetic Theory-this book offers new insights into the initial theory and experimental exploration of wireless. In addition to the well-known contributions of Maxwell, Hertz, and Marconi, it examines work done by Heaviside, Tesla, and passionate amateurs such as the Kentucky melon farmer Nathan Stubblefield and the unsung hero Antonio Meucci. Looking at the story from mathematical, physics, technical, and other perspectives, the clearly written text describes the development of wireless within a vivid scientific milieu. … [detailed...]

Joseph Perez
History of a Tragedy: The Expulsion of the Jews from Spain

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Description: Few events in the history of Spain have provoked as much controversy as the expulsion of the Jews in 1492. Conflicts within the Catholic Church, suspicions within the newly unified Spain, and the claims of Spanish merchants combined to make the Spain of Ferdinand and Isabella intolerant and inquisitorial. Yet the roots of Spanish anti-Semitism went deeper. In this concise survey of the expulsion of the Sephardic Jews, Joseph Perez studies the evolution of the Jewish community in Spain from the time of the Visigoths to the reign of the Catholic kings. He explores the Jewish community`s role in creating and sustaining the vibrant cultural, political, and economic world of medieval Spain, and how growing religious intolerance, a pervasive resentment of the `others,` and a string of escalating encroachments culminated in expulsion.

History of the Bundesbank : Lessons for the European Bank

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: After fifty years the Deutsche Bundesbank - the central bank that ruled European monetary affairs - stepped down to entrust monetary policy to the European Central Bank (ECB). The ECB is largely modelled after the Bundesbank. No doubt, this has somethingto do with the success of the Bundesbank in keeping inflation low. What lessons can be learnt for the ECB from the experience of the Bundesbank? The Bundesbank has been, and in the near future the ECB will be, the most important macroeconomic institutionfor more than two decades. The essays ask formerly taboo questions such as how independent is the Bundesbank, and reveal some evidence that the bank sometimes had to trade-off political demands and price stability.
