"Voluptuous, Exciting, Amorous and Delighting" Kate Percival, a self-proclaimed lady of pleasure, recounts her tale of sexual discovery with rousing effect; from her first embraces with fellow convent student Laura, to espying the motions of Father Clark and student Margaret from behind doors ajar. From the touch of a young man, to becoming the Governess and lover for one older. She thrills at her own wantonness, and excites at the merest hint of impropriety. This little seen work of Edwardian Erotica from 1902, written pseudonymously by the main character herself, bursts at the bodice-seems with raw passion, describing all manner of alluring scenes in titillatingly graphic prose. The Belle Of The Delaware will not disappoint.

Prince Percival's Pesky P.A.N.T.S

Prince Percival's Pesky P.A.N.T.S

Penny Walsh

Planet Pen Publishing

Who is a hero and what do they do? Strict daily routines, no friends allowed, home schooling, always being told what he can and cannot do, busy parents with very little time for him - this is Prince Percival's life, until a furry, purple creature named Fizwotz appears and magically transports Percival into his imaginary world, where the quest to save the jungle ring begins. But how do magical pockets, trees, and crocodile slippers (to name a few) play a part in Prince Percival having to face some of his fears, learn to live with himself, and be a hero? How does it all impact on his real world and how do P.A.N.T.S play a part in all of this? Prince Percival's Pesky P.A.N.T.S is fast-paced, voice-driven, with loveable, eccentric characters. It has twists, and villains, and explores friendships, group dynamics, and the complexities of growing up; including the constraints, frustrations and self-awareness that go with it - even at the age of seven Prince Percival has to step out of his comfort zone, not wanting to show his fears in front of those he is with, which in turn makes him grow as a person. All of this is interwoven into the warm and witty writing, set within an epic journey to save the day against a dastardly, yet incompetent gang.

Lloyd Percival Coach and Visionary

Lloyd Percival Coach and Visionary

"I'm a controversialist. People either swear by me or swear at me." Lloyd Percival During his extraordinary career as an athlete, a health and physical fitness expert, and a media personality, but primarily as a coach, millions of Canadians swore by Lloyd Percival because he was a coach like no other coach Canada has ever seen. He not only instructed individual athletes and teams; he coached the coaches, and he shared his expertise with an entire nation. He did it personally, and he did it through print, radio, and television. For decades a household name from coast to coast, Percival was one of the most successful and influential figures in Canadian sport during the era of profound change following WWII. He became a popular hero because he loved to speak his mind and the bane of the establishment because he insisted upon it. "A must read book about a man who was ahead of his time and influenced hockey in North America and the entire world. Percival's Hockey Handbook changed the on and off ice culture of coaching at every level."LOU LAMORIELLO, PRESIDENT OF HOCKEY OPERATIONS & GENERAL MANAGER, NEW YORK ISLANDERS A fantastic read and contribution to an understanding of the development of sport in Canada during the 'Golden Years' of the 1960's and 1970's. For me, Lloyd Percival was the equivalent of today's Richard Branson, hugely creative and visionary.DR. ROGER JACKSON, OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALISTAND FOUNDING CEO OF 'OWN THE PODIUM', VANCOUVER 2010 A nice tribute to a hockey brother. Percival was ahead of his time. Most of his beliefs became reality and he left a wonderful legacy - the great Soviet coach Tarasov admired his thinking and used his ideas.LOU VIARO, FORMER DIRECTOR OF COACHING EDUCATION USA HOCKEYAND COACH OF THE 1984 USA OLYMPIC TEAM

Thomas Percival’s Medical Ethics and the Invention of Medical Professionalism

Thomas Percival’s Medical Ethics and the Invention of Medical Professionalism

Laurence B. McCullough

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2022
sidottu
This book provides the first comprehensive, historically based, philosophical interpretations of two texts of Thomas Percival’s professional ethics in medicine set in the context of his intellectual biography. Preceded by his privately published and circulated Medical Jurisprudence of 1794, Thomas Percival (1740-1804) published Medical Ethics in 1803, the first book thus titled in the global histories of medicine and medical ethics. From his days as a student at the Warrington Academy and the medical schools of the universities of Edinburgh and Leyden, Percival steeped himself in the scientific method of Francis Bacon (1561-1626). McCullough shows how Percival became a Baconian moral scientist committed to Baconian deism and Dissent. Percival also drew on and significantly expanded the work of his predecessor in professional ethics in medicine, John Gregory (1724-1773). The result is that Percival should be credited with co-inventing professionalism in medicine with Gregory. To aid and encourage future scholarship, this book brings together the first time three essential Percival texts, Medical Jurisprudence, Medical Ethics, and Extracts from the Medical Ethics of Dr. Percival of 1823, the bridge from Medical Ethics to the 1847 Code of Medical Ethics on the American Medical Association. To support comparative reading, this book provides concordances of Medical Jurisprudence to Medical Ethics and of Medical Ethics to Extracts. Finally, this book includes the first Chronology of Percival’s life and works.

Namaskar Books

pokkari
I am about to do a bold thing. I am about to give to the world the particulars of a life fraught with incident and adventure. I am about to lift the veil from the most voluptuous scenes. I shall disguise nothing, conceal nothing, but shall relate everything that has happened to me just as it occurred. I am what is called a woman of pleasure, and have drained its cup to the very dregs. I have the most extraordinary scenes to depict, but although I shall place everything before the reader in the most explicit language, I shall be careful not to wound his or her sense of decency by the use of coarse words, feeling satisfied there is more charm in a story decently told than in the bold unblushing use of term which ought never to sully a woman's lips.

Leonard Percival Howell and the Genesis of Rastafari

Leonard Percival Howell and the Genesis of Rastafari

University of the West Indies Press
2015
nidottu
“The contributors to this volume have found the language and concepts by which to interpret Leonard Howell and the origins of the Rastafari movement in the 1930s. This volume is richly documented from the archives, and from interviews, and is informed by multidisciplinary methods, so the reader is treated to an authoritative and comprehensive collection of essays. “Leonard Howell was persecuted over five decades by the British colonial state and by Jamaican governments since independence in 1962. It is in this context that Howell defined the main tenets of the movement, a movement that has now spread globally. All the major themes of his thinking, such as African redemption, the divinity of Haile Selassie, repatriation, and the struggle for freedom and self-reliance are discussed. Howell challenged British colonialism and Jamaican elites in a very different way from the approaches used by the middle-class intelligentsia. He focused, rather, on a new way of seeing God, King and self, thus creating an alternative way of being in the world. Developing Marcus Garvey’s focus on Africa, Leonard Howell and his followers reclaimed their ancestral identity from the dehumanized condition left by British slavery and colonialism. Howell’s communal settlement on ‘Pinnacle’ was an alternative communal space for Rastafari artisans, musicians and peasant farmers.”—Rupert Lewis, Professor Emeritus, Department of Government, University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica
