Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late twentieth century, we assume a wide array of humanitarian and democratic privilege: health insurance, preventive medicine, equal treatment of rich and poor, equal rights for all. But in Victorian England these issues were just emerging. A nineteenth-century British physician, Dr. Thomas Hodgkins, was their committed champion; his battle ultimately cost him his career. Dr. Hodgkins is now best known for his description of the disease of the lymph nodes named after him, but he was also a reformer, an educator, and a Quaker. He was responsible for numerous medical discoveries. He actively advocated health insurance for the working poor. Throughout his life he espoused the humane treatment of the underprivileged, including minorities. His farsighted vision of medicine and society brought him into conflict with the establishment of the Victorian Empire- with many important medical, religious, and political figures of his time. This vision and struggle remain significant more than 100 years after his death. The authors, both prominent medical educators at Harvard University, have based this book on the hitherto unexplored papers and letters of Dr. Hodgkins and his family in the first major biography of this great nineteenth-century British physician. -- from Book Jacket.

Download or read book Writers, Readers, and Reputations written by Philip Waller and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-04-27 with total page 1181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Dickens died in 1870, the same year in which universal elementary education was introduced. During the following generation a mass reading public emerged, and the term 'best-seller' was coined. In new and cheap editions Dickens's stories sold hugely, but these were progressively outstripped in quantity by the likes of Hall Caine and Marie Corelli, Charles Garvice and Nat Gould. Who has now heard of these writers? Yet Hall Caine, for one, boasted of having made more money from his pen than any previous author. This book presents a panoramic view of literary life in Britain over half a century from 1870 to 1918, teasing out authors' relations with the reading public and tracing how reputations were made and unmade. It surveys readers' habits, the book trade, popular literary magazines and the role of reviewers, and examines the construction of a classical canon by critics concerned about the supposed corruption of popular taste. Certain writers were elevated as national heroes, yet Britain drew its writers from abroad as well as from home. Authors became stars and celebrities, and a literary tourism grew around their haunts. They advertised products from cigarettes to toothpaste; they were fashion-conscious and promoted themsevles via profiles, interviews, and carefully posed photographs; they went on lecture tours to America; and their names were pushed by a new professional breed: the literary agent. Some angled for knighthoods, even peerages, and cut a figure in high society and London clubland. They debated public issues of the day and campaigned on all manner of things from questions of faith and women's rights to censorship and conscription. During the Great War they penned propaganda. Meanwhile the cinema was developing to challenge the supremacy of the written word over the imagination. Authors took to that too, as an opportunity for new adventure. Writers, Readers, and Reputations is richly entertaining and informative, amounting to a collective biography of a generation of writers and their world.

Download or read book Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin written by Georgina Ferry and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Shortlisted for the Duff Cooper Prize and the Marsh Biography Award* The definitive biography of chemist Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, the only British woman to win a Nobel prize in the sciences to date. Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin (1910–1994) was passionate in her quest to understand the molecules of the living body. She won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1964 for her work on penicillin and Vitamin B12, and her study of insulin made her a pioneer in protein crystallography. Fully engaged with the political and social currents of her time, Hodgkin experienced radical change in women's education, the globalisation of science, relationships between East and West, and international initiatives for peace. Georgina Ferry's definitive biography of Britain's first female Nobel prizewinning scientist was shortlisted for the Duff Cooper Prize and the Marsh Biography Award. This revised and updated edition includes a new preface from the author.
