Reproduction of the original: The Province of Midwives in the Practice of their Art by William Clark

The celebrated journals of Lewis and Clark's legendary expedition into the uncharted American West, abridged into a single volume and translated into modern English, with nuanced observations from star author and journalist Anthony Brandt. At the start of the 19th century, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark embarked on an unprecedented voyage of discovery. Their assignment was to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory and record the geography, flora, fauna, and people they encountered along the way. This updated edition of the captains' journals combines historical insight from editor Anthony Brandt with the rich detail of Lewis and Clark's original writing, as well as archival maps and artwork. An enthralling portrait of the unspoiled West, this true-life adventure story is a window to the dawning of America--from encounters with grizzly bears to councils with tribal leaders and perilous mountain crossings. "Because the captains don't know what is going to happen next, the reader or listener suspends his or her knowledge and is caught up in the immediacy of the moment. This is narrative history at its best. The journals are our national epic poem."--Stephen E. Ambrose

Something has been found in southwest Michigan - a large concrete box in a landfill, an ominous holdover from World War Two that from the moment of its discovery changes the lives of everyone involved. The FBI, Homeland Security, and local law enforcement are all drawn into a high-velocity maelstrom surrounding the box of government intrigue - calculated murder and mind-boggling discoveries. The Berrien Box is a gripping story, taking the reader on a page-turner of a journey that does not let up for an instant, a story that may make you question everything you know about the real power that runs the country. Berrien box, you have no idea what lies ahead.

Do faith and science prove or indicate that there is something to all of the attention surrounding the apocalyptic clamor? I'm sure that many of us are wondering why so many people are obsessed with the apocalypse. We not only see cable documentaries and movies about the apocalypse, but we also hear about it at church and through other associations. By now, everyone has heard about preppers; even FEMA is preparing in a big way. Is it a fade or is there something to it? The obsession seems to be with not just one group or religion, but it includes a variety of people and ages. About four years ago, I was shopping at a large chain discount store. A young man in his twenties started talking to me about prepping. It seemed that his belief in the coming apocalypse had to do more with being prepared for a nationwide or worldwide catastrophe. He was preparing with several other young people and an older man, who owned a shelter in the country. They were gathering food, water, medical supplies and weapons among other things. One cable documentary interviewed a young, prepper woman, who concentrated on physical fitness and a "bug-out" system in a big city, because she felt civil chaos would take place due to a global oil shortage. I would think that a dedicated prepper wouldn't be living in a big city Believers in the soon coming apocalypse also seem to be from diverse educational and financial backgrounds. A good example of diversity is my own brother, Dr. Richard Clark, who has his own practice and is affiliated with a prestigious medical school. It might be of no surprise that an evangelical like myself would tend to believe in the apocalyptic age, but some may be surprised that many like my brother also believe in the approaching apocalypse. When our mother's health declined, my brother and I met a number of times in our hometown. Our lives had taken different paths since graduation from high school and college. My older brother pursued a career in medicine; obtaining several specialties and an undergraduate degree from M.I.T. After college, my life took me into evangelical ministry. I traveled from Indiana to Texas, and later became a pastor and retired as a pastor. As we caught up with each other, we were both surprised to learn that both of us believed that we are living in the apocalyptic age. We see faith and science merging together, as we experience the closing of the current era of mankind. I first began to get a sense of this by the end of my undergraduate days. My brother began to sense it much later from his scientific and mathematical knowledge. He has studied a number of theories, and believes that based on science and mathematics, the apocalyptic age is upon us. Perhaps there is more to the Hollywood movies and television documentaries on the apocalypse than just money and ratings. There seems to be a desperation in our times that not only looks to religion for answers, but to preparedness due to the fear of world-wide catastrophes ranging from pandemics to nuclear warfare to natural disasters to food and water shortages. Religious believers, preppers and even scientists are unwittingly merging together in the belief of the apocalypse. In a number of apocalyptic documentaries today, we here the phrase, "it's not a question of if it will happen, but when it will happen". Increased knowledge will take us from apocalyptic fanatics to realists as we explore science, religion, personal convictions and the unstable world in which we live.

Twin Block appliances are simple bite blocks that are designed for full-time wear. They achieve rapid functional correction of malocclusion (misalignment of upper and lower teeth) by the transmission of favourable occlusal forces to occlusal inclined planes that cover the posterior teeth. The forces of occlusion are used as the functional mechanism to correct the malocclusion (www.twinblocks.com). Beginning with an introduction to orthodontics and twin blocks, the next chapters describe growth studies and diagnosis and treatment planning. Each of the following sections discusses the use of twin blocks for different types of malocclusion. With a focus on the latest developments in functional therapy, the book offers guidance on diagnosis, treatment planning, case selection, appliance design and clinical management. Written by the internationally recognised Orthodontist William Clark from Fife, UK, who also invented Twin Blocks, this comprehensive guide includes nearly 600 clinical photographs and illustrations.
