This book was released on 2001 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, zoonoses and communicablediseases common to man and animals have gained increasing attention worldwide.Human diseases that have their origins in infected animals--such as AIDS, SARS, andCreutzfeldt-Jakob--have highlighted the need for a better understanding ofanimal diseases. The ease and speed of modern travel facilitatesthe spread of diseases once confined to specific geographic areas, as recentlyoccurred with the Covid-19 epidemic. Animal migration and trade pose a similarthreat, as was shown by the outbreaks in the United States of West Nile feverand monkeypox--two diseases not previously known in the Western Hemisphere. Eachof these examples highlights the need for accurate, up-to-date information, such as that presented here in the latest edition of Zoonoses and Communicable Diseases Common to Man and Animals. This edition, published for the first time inthree volumes, covers: I.Bacterioses and mycoses II.Chlamydioses, rickettsioses, and viroses III.Parasitoses The books provide a detailed overview of themost important historic and emerging zoonotic diseases, such as Ebolahemorrhagic fever, foot-and-mouth disease, influenza, giardiasis, Japaneseencephalitis, shigellosis, and spongiform encephalopathies, with informationranging from their first appearance and most important outbreaks to the latestscientific knowledge of the diseases and their causative agents. The chaptersprovide the following key information on each disease: etiology geographicdistribution symptoms and occurrence in man and animals source of infection andmode of transmission role of animals in its epidemiology diagnostic techniques, and prevention and control measures Numerous tables and figures diagrammingmodes of transmission complement the text. The book is an essential tool for biologists, parasitologists, virologists, veterinarians, doctors, epidemiologists, andworkers in public health and animal health institutions, as well as forteachers, researchers, and students in these fields. All of them will find valuablematerial to enrich their collection of reference works in the third edition ofZoonoses and communicable diseases common to man and animals.

This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than the customary focus on the activities of individual collectors, The Emergence of the Antique and Curiosity Dealer in Britain 1815–1850: The Commodification of Historical Objects illuminates the less-studied roles played by dealers in the nineteenthcentury antique and curiosity markets. Set against the recent ‘art market turn’ in scholarly literature, this volume examines the role, activities, agency and influence of antique and curiosity dealers as they emerged in the opening decades of the nineteenth century. This study begins at the end of the Napoleonic Wars, when dealers began their wholesale importations of historical objects; it closes during the 1850s, after which the trade became increasingly specialised, reflecting the rise of historical museums such as the South Kensington Museum (V&A). Focusing on the archive of the early nineteenth-century London dealer John Coleman Isaac (c.1803–1887), as well as drawing on a wide range of other archival and contextual material, Mark Westgarth considers the emergence of the dealer in relation to a broad historical and cultural landscape. The emergence of the antique and curiosity dealer was part of the rapid economic, social, political and cultural change of early nineteenth-century Britain, centred around ideas of antiquarianism, the commercialisation of culture and a distinctive and evolving interest in historical objects. This book will be of interest to scholars in art history, histories of collecting, museum and heritage studies and nineteenth-century culture.

Book excerpt: "A Pot of Paint reconstructs the lost transcript and revisits the highly contested issues surrounding one of the most celebrated trials in the history of art. A libel suit brought in the London courts by American expatriate artist James McNeill Whistler against John Ruskin, England's most powerful art critic, the trial was essentially a debate of aesthetic theory conducted at a critical hour in the evolution of modern art." "After viewing an 1877 exhibition that included some of Whistler's most abstract works, Ruskin declared in print that the artist had flung "a pot of paint in the public's face." He called Whistler a "coxcomb" and said that it was the height of "cockney impudence" to ask two hundred guineas for a painting such as Nocturne in Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket. The dispute was fully covered in the popular press. Using those newspaper accounts, as well as letters, legal papers, Ruskin's instructions to his counsel, and Whistler's later rendition of events in The Gentle Art of Making Enemies, Linda Merrill reveals the deeply held, contrary aesthetic ideals of the two parties, and shows that, in many ways, the real litigants in Whistler v. Ruskin were traditional, representational art and art that tended toward abstraction." "During eighteen months of pretrial delays and two days of testimony from Whistler and several well-known figures in the art world, London debated the value and the meaning of art. A Pot of Paint retrieves these debates for a society that continues to argue the merits of innovation in art and the place of art in the modern world."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Puccini written by Mosco Carner and published by . This book was released on 1959 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life and works of Giacomo Puccini, composer of La Boheme, Madama Butterfly, Tosca, Turandot, and other universal operatic favorites, are here presented in detail for the first time in any language in a book unlikely ever to be superseded. A full-length recounting of Puccini's fascinating life, rich in previously unused materials, is followed by detailed analyses of each of his operas and other compositions. The author, a Viennese conductor and musicologist, has performed this monumental task with knowledge, grace, and insight. The biography brings to life a curious, somewhat ambiguous man whose greatly successful career was marked alternately by storms, tragedies, and triumphs, a genius who somehow missed the final greatness. His relations with his family, colleagues, librettists, singers, conductors--and his peculiar, convoluted relationship with his wife--have some of the very drama that has made his operas so enduringly popular. Puccini's letters are quoted extensively, many of them in English for the first time. The opera analyses, constantly evaluating the music in terms of drama and libretto, are unique in musical literature and in their completeness and illumination. They are, furthermore, judicious and soundly musical, for instead of accepting ready-made opinions (many of which are quoted), they go directly to the scores themselves.
