Original Paper Covered Boards. Zustand: Good. First Edition. 1824. First edition. viii, 148pp. The author of this hard-to-find book treated ophthalmia in England, Ireland, France Sapin, America, and the West Indies. He pursued the antiphlogistic plan of treatment for twelve years but was frequently disappointed with the result and develkoped the opinion that ophthalmia was aggravated by low diet, total abstinence from wine, depletion, and confinement to bed.He developed his own treatment with the greatest part of his information drawn from observation in the 64th Regiment; a corps with which he served in different climates from the year 1813. The case of the book is in need of repair. The original paper covered boards are worn and detached with bumping and damage to the corners. The last leaf of the book (pages 147 and 148) is still attached to the rear board. It was bound with a cloth spine, most of which is missing from the spine. The endpaper on the front board has a stamp from the Glasgow Eye Infirmary Library. Apart from this stamp there are no library indications. The contents are in better condition being largely clean with only a little scattered foxing and some light soiling from finger smudges on the title page. The front free endpaper and title page are loose and, as mentioned above, the last page of the book is separated from the rest of the text and is attached to the rear board. Some of the pages remain unseparated along the top edge.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The 2008 financial crash was the worst financial crisis and the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression. It triggered a complete overhaul of the global regulatory environment, ushering in a stream of new rules and laws to combat the perceived weakness of the financial system. While the global economy came back from the brink, the continuing effects of the crisis include increasing economic inequality and political polarization. Ten Years After the Crash is an innovative analysis of the crisis and its ongoing influence on the global regulatory, financial, and political landscape, with timely discussions of the key issues for our economic future. It brings together a range of expert and practitioner perspectives, including the Nobel Prize winner Joseph Stiglitz, the former congressman Barney Frank, the former treasury secretary Jacob Lew, the former deputy governor of the Bank of England Paul Tucker, and Steve Cutler, general counsel of JP Morgan Chase during the financial crisis. Each poses crucial questions: What were the origins of the crisis How effective were international and domestic regulatory responses Have we addressed the roots of the crisis through reform and regulation Are our financial systems and the global economy better able to withstand another crash Ten Years After the Crash is vital reading as both a retrospective on the last crisis and analysis of possible sources of the next one.…

pp. xv, (i), 208. Folding engraved map - "Plan of Barcelona. in the year 1818". Original paper boards with printed paper spine label, uncut, a few old ink marks on the front free end-paper, a very good copy. *Very scarce - COPAC records copies at the British Library, Oxford and Cambridge and the Wellcome Library. The first recorded account of yellow fever is that of Alexo de Abreu, Lisbon, 1623 [GM 5449.5], with the definitive study of Walter Reed a.o. in 1900 [GM 5457], showing that the mosquito Aëdes aegypti, is the vector. At least two workers on the etiology of the disease themselves succumbed to it through accidental transmission. Prior to the publication of O'Halloran's book, GM only records the accounts of the epidemic in Philadelphia in 1793 and Du Tertre's account of the outbreak in Guadaloupe in 1635, 1640 and 1648. O'Halloran quotes extensively from Spanish sources and discusses the prevailing arguments for and against contagion but without being able to come to a definite conclusion. He does describe the topography in some detail including the presence of swamp and pools of stagnant water but nowhere discusses the mosquitos. It was not until 1854 that Louis Beauperthuy proposed that mosquitos were a possible vector for yellow fever followed by Carlos Juan Finlay in his paper of 1881-1882 which suggested that mosquitos carried the infection from man to man. See WATERSON & WILKINSON History of Virology - 'Among the many important results following each other in rapid succession in the early years of the century was the heroic work on yellow fever. For more than two centuries the disease had remained a mysterious scourge in the subtropical areas of the Americas since it first travelled there on slave ships from Africa to Barbados in 1647.'.…
