R. H. Cromek, Engraver, Editor, and Entrepreneur

By: Dennis M. Read

Based on meticulous archival research, Dennis M. Read's study offers the most accurate and thorough account to date of the engraver, editor, and arts enthusiast R. H. Cromek. Though he is best known today as William Blake's nemesis, Cromek made significant contributions to the vitality of the arts in nineteenth-century Britain. Read traces Cromek's early years as an accomplished engraver, his collaborations and falling out with Blake, and his editing and publishing ventures, showing him to be a pioneer who recognized the opportunities of the emerging market economy. Read's descriptions of Cromek's disastrous associations with the Chalcographic Society, his publication of Robert Burns's unpublished works, and his duping by the perpetrator of a literary hoax make for fascinating reading and tell us much about the commercial art and publishing scenes in England and Scotland. Perhaps most important, Read salvages Cromek's reputation as an unscrupulous exploiter of Blake and others. A fuller and more balanced portrait emerges that shows Cromek's efforts to bring the arts to emerging cities of the midlands and beyond, describes his friendships and associations with luminaries of the fine arts and literature such as Leigh Hunt and Benjamin West, and challenges more biased reports of his successes and failures as an entrepreneur.

Militant Mediator

Whitney M. Young Jr.

By: Dennis C. Dickerson

During the turbulent 1960s, civil rights leader Whitney M. Young Jr. devised a new and effective strategy to achieve equality for African Americans. Young blended interracial mediation with direct protest, demonstrating that these methods pursued together were the best tactics for achieving social, economic, and political change. Militant Mediator is a powerful reassessment of this key and controversial figure in the civil rights movement. It is the first biography to explore in depth the influence Young's father, a civil rights leader in Kentucky, had on his son. Dickerson traces Young's swift rise to national prominence as a leader who could bridge the concerns of deprived blacks and powerful whites and mobilize the resources of the white America to battle the poverty and discrimination at the core of racial inequality. Alone among his civil rights colleagues—Martin Luther King Jr., Roy Wilkins, James Farmer, John Lewis, and James Forman—Young built support from black and white constituencies. As a National Urban League official in the Midwest and as a dean of the School of Social Work at Atlanta University during the 1940s and 1950s, Young developed a strategy of mediation and put it to work on a national level upon becoming the executive director of the League in 1961. Though he worked with powerful whites, Young also drew support from middle-and working-class blacks from religious, fraternal, civil rights, and educational organizations. As he navigated this middle ground, though, Young came under fire from both black nationalists and white conservatives.

Pediatric Endocrinology

A Clinical Handbook

By: Dennis M. Styne

Now in a revised and expanded second edition, this concise, straightforward and clearly written text presents the latest information on the evaluation and management of common issues and conditions in pediatric endocrinology. Endocrinologists, pediatricians, family physicians, residents, fellows and medical students will all benefit from the discussion of endocrine physiology and its application to common clinical practice. As in the original edition, the text presents the major signs and symptoms in the diagnosis and management of pediatric endocrine disorders, often allowing the practitioner to avoid an unnecessary consultation and preparing a provider for informed communication with parents of a child with an endocrine condition. The concepts covered in the text are designed to address the first 10 headings in the content outline of the Sub-board of Pediatric Endocrinology of The American Board of Pediatrics: disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, growth, calcium metabolism and bone, the thyroid gland, puberty, and the adrenal gland, among others. Concluding each chapter is a Suggested Reading section, directing the reader to outstanding larger and more detailed texts, manuscripts and websites that offer increased detail. Practical and user-friendly, Pediatric Endocrinology, Second Edition is not simply a checklist of everything that could be done but leads the reader toward a more specific goal of what should be done.
