Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In The Spanish Inquisition, first published in 1892, Rev. Sydney Fenn Smith, S.J., explains how the organisation developed in response to a Jewish conspiracy to obtain influential positions within the Catholic church and state: 'These [Jews] were in league with the open adherents of their nat…ional creed, and were the more dangerous because their machinations against the Catholic religion were carried on in the dark. The extent of the evil may be realized somewhat when it is said that not a few of these secret Jews had risen to high ecclesiastical dignities, some even to bishoprics.' Smith, in seeking to reassure his Protestant compatriots that they had nothing to fear from an unlikely return of Catholic power in England, goes on to argue that given the context of the period, and in comparison to other examples of judicial process, particularly English, the Spanish Inquisition was relatively liberal and ahead of its time in terms of fair play and leniency.

LEGATURA EDITORIALE. Zustand: NUOVO. Tutti i giorni, al mattino, papà lo porta nella casa un po' pollaio della sua babushka. Una casa in cui tutti gli angoli sono pieni delle sue verdure dell'orto. Tra nonna e nipote non c'è bisogno di tante parole: la loro giornata è fatta di piccoli gesti, di passeggiate, di sguardi affettuosi… e di molti lombrichi da tirar su e conservare. Il rispetto per il cibo, quella fame mai dimenticata, e l'amore per la terra e i suoi frutti sono l'eredità che affida al nipote. Età di lettura: da 6 anni. Sydney Smith (illustrator).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Darwin's not Elektronisches Buch provide an invaluable record of his scientific thinking and most importantly, the development of his theory of natural selection. This edition of the not Elektronisches Buch, prepared to the highest standard of textua…l editing, thus affords a unified view of Darwin's professional interests. The Red Notebook, used on the voyage of H. M. S. Beagle and afterwards in England, contains Darwin's first evolutionary statements. In July of 1837, Darwin began his 'Transmutation Not Elektronisches Buch' (B - E) devoted to the solution of the species problem and in the third notebook of this series he first formulated the theory of natural selection. This volume also contains Notebook A and the glen Roy Notebook on geology, Not Elektronisches Buch M and N on man and behaviour and a notebook labelled Questions and Experiments. Fresh transcriptions have been done for all previously published manuscripts, with readings made directly from Not Elektronisches Buch B, C, D and E, presenting them with previously excised pages and restored to their original sequence.

Shepherd As Anatomist by I. Maclaren Thompson (read before the Medical History Club, Winnipeg, 1937). Spine and edge wear, some rubbing on boards. A Brief Account of the History of Medicine is damp stained to the bottom half of the text block. A very good collection overall. Francis John Shepherd [1851-1929] and Herbert Birkett [1864-1942] were prominent medical men in Montreal. Shepherd In 1878 was appointed medical officer to the Montreal Dispensary, and in May of the following year was elected surgeon to out-patients at the Montreal General Hospital. In 1883 he exchanged this post for that of physician to the Charity and undertook the surgical work. He was also made temporary registrar of the Faculty of Medicine at McGill. He was greatly interested in the Montreal Maternity Hospital from 1886 until his death [Plarr's Lives of the Fellows, Royal College of Surgeons, London]. He was lifelong friend with Sir William Osler. In an article by Scott Belyea on a Century of Snatching: Grave Robbing in Kingston (in Ontario History: Volume 108, No. 1, 2016), he concludes that Montreal has garnered the most attention, with its rich socio- medical history and notorious Côtes des Neiges hilltop cemetery from which, according to Francis Shepherd (in his book Reminiscences), medical students and their exhumed "friends" often tobogganed down the winter slopes. Sylvio Leblond and D.G. Lawrence also cite many colourful Quebec examples of body snatching, collectively positioning Montreal as Canada's grave robbing capital." Similarly, Herbert Birkett rose from McGill to international success. His diligence and work ethic were instrumental in developing Otolaryngology departments at the Royal Victoria Hospital (RVH) and McGill University and his championing of the separation of Otolaryngology from Ophthalmology in 1905. Among his accomplishments, Berkett performed the first thyrotomy for malignant laryngeal diseases in Canada in 1893 and advocated for advanced radiology techniques. These three books showcase the development of medicine and medical research in Canada in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly in Montreal and Quebec, establishing itself as a hub for health and medical sciences that continues to make insightful contributions today.
