In the last decade of the 15th century a new and deadly disease called Morbus Gallicus, or syphilis, appeared and spread rapidly throughout Europe. The effects of syphilis were so severe that it, and those suffering from it, where regarded with horror and despair. It is difficult for the modern reader to appreciate the fog of confusion which surrounded sexually transmitted diseases in earlier times. Those suffering with these diseases were often condemned as victims of their own "sinful lust of the flesh"; a judgement attitude which hindered most of the early attempts at control and treatment. Despite this general attitude, there were some doctors who persevered in their attempts to understand the causes and discover treatments for syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases. The Scars of Venus is illustrated with pictures of people, places, instruments and documents. It presents the historical background and achievements of the early venereologists through to the current venereologists' fight against HIV. This book will be of interest to anyone concerned with venereal diseases: doctors, nurses, counsellors, laboratory workers, medical historians, and those working in the areas of public/world health and the spread of infectious diseases.

This book contains a compilation of lessons learned over a lifetime of study in the school of hard knocks through a wide spectrum of activities that range from family interactions on the one hand to complex business/professional involvements on the other. As a result, numerous personal examples, coupled with biblically and spiritually based inspirational material, are provided that serve to illustrate the ideas and concepts that have been applied to achieve a winning outcome in these environments. Within the context of this book, winning refers to the attainment of a successful outcome, regardless of the context, and although many of the concepts and ideas discussed will be confined primarily to the interpersonal relationships among individuals and presented in the framework of a business or family environment, they are also applicable when dealing with members of a civic organization, a church group, a professional organization, or any other group where people interact or work together for some common goal. Although the achievement of successful personal interactions in any endeavor can be difficult and the optimum path unknown, when the effort is systematically performed in concert with Almighty God, winning can become a way of life.

"The early Shippley Stories, the early Ricchus Stories, some stories that are neither, and a bunch of old song lyrics with crude illustrations. All of it piled up together and in no particular order. I mean, that's about the size of it." --J. David Thayer
