Essays and Notes on Husbandry and Rural Affairs. By J.B. Bordley. [Three Lines of Verse]
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments.

Drawing on private and published sources, Roger Fagge takes an in-depth look at J.B. Priestley's work, seeking to reclaim him as an important English thinker. Priestley grew up in Bradford, and served on the front line in the First World War, before attending Cambridge and embarking on a career as a writer. A committed radical, he wrote widely for the press, as well as producing autobiographies, social criticism and plays. This work revealed a growing interest in the meaning of Englishness and the start of a long-running relationship with America. Priestley achieved even greater influence during the early years of World War II via his popular BBC radio 'postscripts'. His later career, however, saw his faith in the people give way to a disillusionment with the spread of the Americanised mass society, although his critical response to the latter maintained a perceptive engagement with world. The Vision of J.B. Priestley charts the continuities, strengths and weaknesses in the author's long career, and his vision of an outward looking radical Englishness.

J. B. S. Haldane (1892-1964) was one of the most brilliant of British scientists - and one of the most controversial. A trail-blazing geneticist and physiologist, who used himself as his own guinea-pig, he was also a highly successful populariser of science, a dedicated Marxist, and a devotee of Hindu culture. His private life was often tempestuous: early in his career he was sacked from his Cambridge post after being cited in a divorce case - but reinstated on appeal; and his relations with scientific colleagues and the political establishment were normally acrimonious. Haldane's most important scientific research, on the mathematical basis of evolutionary theory, was done at University College London. Towards the end of his life he founded the Genetics and Biometry Laboratory at Bhubaneswar in India having become an Indian citizen in 1960.In writing this definitive biography, Ronald Clark was able to draw upon Haldane's private papers, as well as the reminiscences of the great man's friends (and enemies). Mr. Clark has written extensively on scientists and the application of science to modern life. His books include major biographies of Einstein and Freud.

During the 1930s a new approach to exploring human consciousness began at Duke University with Professor J. B. Rhine's experimental research on extra-sensory perception, or ESP. His findings on telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition and psychokinesis challenged conventional disbelief. Rhine's findings and his first popular book, New Frontiers of the Mind, ignited excitement and controversy--among not only scientists but the public at large. Rhine's letters chronicle his efforts to find reliable evidence of psychic ability, from the seance room to psychic animals and finally to a university research laboratory. Covering the years 1923-1939, they reveal a gripping story of groundbreaking research, told in the words of the main player as he worked with his team, subjects, critics and supporters alike.

A Canadian Chaplain in the Great War: Revisiting B.J. Murdoch's the Red Vineyard

An annotated edition of the 1923 war memoir of a young Catholic priest in France from the author of A Canadian Nurse in the Great War. Benedict Joseph Murdoch's The Red Vineyard was a captivating autobiographical tale of a young man's experience as a chaplain during the First World War. As a young Roman Catholic priest from Chatham, New Brunswick, Murdoch became chaplain to the 132nd Infantry Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF), serving in Europe from 1916 to 1918. He was a sensitive and perceptive young man with an eye for detail; his war writing tells us not only of nurses and wounded soldiers; he also draws attention to the beauty of the French countryside. The Red Vineyard was first published in 1923 and is one of only two Canadian first-hand accounts of chaplaincy in the Great War. It is republished here in full, with scholar and author Ross Hebb's valuable running commentary as well as an insightful introduction and epilogue, a helpful timeline, and a guide to persons mentioned in the work. Murdoch's text reveals things we would not expect. Murdoch is exceptional in relating his combat stresses and his own signs of an ever-deepening condition of PTSD--well before discussions of veterans' mental health were commonplace. Hebb includes never-before-revealed details, including a letter from Murdoch's RC military chaplaincy superior stressing Murdoch's mental state and his need for a significant rest. More than a war diary, A Canadian Chaplain in the Great War offers an exceptional window into the world of the time.
From the Mind and Imagination of J.B. Frost: A Poet's Progression
From as far back as I can remember, writing has been therapy and an escape. I seek to chronicle life in as many ways as I experience it, as well as providing an avenue that speaks to issue and situations that others face, as well as tossing in a little bit of fiction. Poetry's had a few rough centuries since the days of Shakespeare but seems to be creeping its way back to life in many Universities. In this latest work, I offer an additional 121 poems on life, love, heartache, blessings, children, death, religion, faith, and even politics. I'm certainly not up there with the giants of poetry, but I offer my own humble prospects, to history's collection of some of the words we humans use to record and relay information. I hope you enjoy reading this latest edition.
