Book Description
Excerpt from A Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Health: Designed for Students, Schools, and Popular Use; Illustrated With Numerous Plates I now present to the public my Treatise on Anatomy, Physiology, and Health, designed both for the student of medicine as well as the general reader. I at first intended to issue a large work and plates, to correspond with my midwifery; but upon more mature reflection, I deemed it best to publish it in the present form and size, with the accompanying figures. The price of a work as large and costly as I at first contemplated, would have restricted the sale considerably, in placing it beyond the reach of those in limited circumstances. These objections, together with the great labor and cost of the text and engravings, have induced me thus to issue it; and I think it preferable, taking everything into consideration. I have labored to be brief, perspicuous, and comprehensive, and, at the same time, to give clear and full illustrations, both by the text and numerous plates; without which every work of the kind is very imperfect and poorly calculated to impart instruction. The reader will perceive that I have adapted this treatise to the capacity of the popular reader, as well as the student of medicine. We must depend for patronage for a work of this kind upon all classes of the community; and indeed the success of our reformatory course in medicine, I apprehend, depends much upon disseminating among them correct views in Physiology, which shows obviously the utility and importance of such a work.

Minding the Machine
Author: Stephen P. RicePublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520227816
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
"Minding the Machine is an illuminating contribution to our understanding of antebellum mechanization and the origins of the modern middle class. Carefully focusing on key antebellum discussions of mechanical knowledge, training, control, opportunity, bodily and mental health, Rice convincingly shows how deeply these were pervaded by conceptions of social and class authority."—John F. Kasson, author of Amusing the Million: Coney Island at the Turn of the Century "Stephen Rice has brought provocative questions and fresh research to bear on that vexed topic-the origins of the American middle class. Using the increased mechanization of production during the antebellum decades as his focus, he has provided a fascinating picture of workplace changes and the cultural responses they elicited."—Joyce Appleby, author of Inheriting the Revolution: The First Generation of Americans "Rice's book explores the intellectual processes by which the emerging middle class in antebellum America strove to understand and control the new industrial order, mapping class relations onto less contested social and technical terrain. Within strange and unusual places and movements seemingly removed from the center of workplace change and conflict—such as health reform and the creation of chess playing automatons—crucial questions of power and authority were debated."—David Zonderman, author of Aspirations and Anxieties: New England Workers and the Mechanized Factory System, 1815-1850
Dictionary of Early American Philosophers
Author: John R. ShookPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1441171401
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 1288
Book Description
The Dictionary of Early American Philosophers, which contains over 400 entries by nearly 300 authors, provides an account of philosophical thought in the United States and Canada between 1600 and 1860. The label of "philosopher" has been broadly applied in this Dictionary to intellectuals who have made philosophical contributions regardless of academic career or professional title. Most figures were not academic philosophers, as few such positions existed then, but they did work on philosophical issues and explored philosophical questions involved in such fields as pedagogy, rhetoric, the arts, history, politics, economics, sociology, psychology, medicine, anthropology, religion, metaphysics, and the natural sciences. Each entry begins with biographical and career information, and continues with a discussion of the subject's writings, teaching, and thought. A cross-referencing system refers the reader to other entries. The concluding bibliography lists significant publications by the subject, posthumous editions and collected works, and further reading about the subject.

The Politics of Anxiety in Nineteenth-Century American Literature
Author: Justine S. MurisonPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139497634
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
For much of the nineteenth century, the nervous system was a medical mystery, inspiring scientific studies and exciting great public interest. Because of this widespread fascination, the nerves came to explain the means by which mind and body related to each other. By the 1830s, the nervous system helped Americans express the consequences on the body, and for society, of major historical changes. Literary writers, including Nathaniel Hawthorne and Harriet Beecher Stowe, used the nerves as a metaphor to re-imagine the role of the self amidst political, social and religious tumults, including debates about slavery and the revivals of the Second Great Awakening. Representing the 'romance' of the nervous system and its cultural impact thoughtfully and, at times, critically, the fictional experiments of this century helped construct and explore a neurological vision of the body and mind. Murison explains the impact of neurological medicine on nineteenth-century literature and culture.
