Footrot and Foot Abscess of Ruminants

By: J. R. Egerton,Weng K. Yong,George G. Riffkin

During the last two decades substantial advances have been made in research on footrot and foot abscess. The results of this research are presented in this volume. Footrot and foot abscess differ from most other communicable diseases in that they are mixed bacterial infections, which are regarded as the most economically important contagious disease of sheep in Australia today. This book is aimed at practicing veterinarians, government animal health officers and research scientists who are interested in diagnosis, treatment and prevention of economically important bacterial diseases of the ruminant hoof. It covers the microbiology of two major pathogens, Bacteroides nodosus and Fusobacterium necrophorum, and the pathology, immunology and epidemiology of footrot and foot abscess. It contains up-to-date information on various strategies currently used to control these diseases in sheep in Australia and New Zealand. Of special interest to clinicians will be sections on diagnosis which are comprehensively illustrated with pictures of various clinical entities together with differential diagnosis of other infections that localize in the digits. Developments in immunological control recently advanced by exciting opportunities to produce defined vaccines by recombinant DNA technology are also reviewed. Consideration is given to the application of biotechnology to rapid and accurate diagnosis. Sections on diagnosis are illustrated with pictures of various clinical entities together with differential diagnosis of other infections that localize in the digits. Reports achievements of great practical value Covers microbiology, pathology, immunology and epidemiology of each condition

The Vast Abyss

By: Manville Fenn George

The thrilling adventure book "The Vast Abyss" by George Manville Fenn is about younger Dick Trevanion's adventures. When the tale begins, it takes area on a sea journey and includes exploration. It is broadly speaking about Captain Chunder's treasure-searching day trip to Antarctica. Trevanion sets out in this dangerous adventure with a big group of human beings. They need to deal with hard conditions within the harsh, icy Antarctic environment because the tale is going on. Aside from dangerous weather, antagonistic local human beings, and the horrifying mysteries that lie inside the uncharted regions, the team faces some of challenges. As the story goes on, Trevanion indicates that he is ingenious and sturdy when matters go incorrect, navigating through the dangers and secrets of the uncharted Antarctic wastelands. As the characters face the unknown, the tale is going past simply showing how tough the journey is on our bodies. It also suggests how their minds and feelings are affected. To maintain the reader's interest, Fenn skillfully combines elements of journey, threat, and tension, vividly describing the journey's problems and Antarctica's untouched splendor. The book "The Vast Abyss" shows how desirable Fenn is at writing experience tales which are both exciting and show how strong the human spirit is within the face of uncertainty.

Archaeomineralogy

Archaeomineralogy

By: George Rapp

“Archaeomineralogy” provides a wealth of information for mineralogists, geologists and archaeologists involved in archaeometric studies. The first edition was very well-received and praised for its systematic description of the rocks and minerals used throughout the world by our ancestors and for its excellent list of over 900 references, providing easy access to the fields of archaeomineralogy and geoarchaeology. This second edition of “Archaeomineralogy” takes an updated and expanded look at the human use of rocks and minerals from the Paleolithic through to the 18th century CE. It retains the structure and main themes of the original but has been revised and expanded with more than 200 new references within the text, a bibliography of additional references not included in the text, a dozen new figures (drawings and photos), coverage of many additional important mineral, rock, and gem materials, a broader geographic scope, particularly but not limited to Eastern Europe, and a more thorough review of early contributions to archaeomineralogy, especially those of Agricola. From reviews of the first edition: "... crammed full of useful information, is well-balanced using both new and Old World examples of the archaeomaterials described. It also provides a broad, but of necessity, all too brief overview of the geological raw materials used in antiquity." -- Geoscientist "...provides much interesting discussion of how particular names came to be employed by archaeologists working in different regions of the world.... much to offer for any geologist or archaeologist interested in minerals and rocks and how they have been used in the past." -- Mineralium Deposita "... a gem of a book, it's strength is that it is encyclopedic in content, if not in layout, draws on a wealth of field experience and almost every sentence contains a nugget of information" -- The Holocene

The Golden Age of the Newspaper

The Golden Age of the Newspaper

By: George H. Douglas

From the arrival of the penny papers in the 1830s to the coming of radio news around 1930, the American newspaper celebrated its Golden Age and years of greatest influence on society. Born in response to a thirst for news in large eastern cities such as New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, the mood of the modern metropolitan papers eventually spread throughout the nation. Douglas tells the story of the great innovators of the American press—men like Bennett, Greeley, Bryant, Dana, Pulitzer, Hearst, and Scripps. He details the development of the bond between newspapers and the citizens of a democratic republic and how the newspapers molded themselves into a distinctly American character to become an intimate part of daily life. Technological developments in papermaking, typesetting, and printing, as well as the growth of advertising, gradually made possible huge metropolitan dailies with circulations in the hundreds of thousands. Soon journalism became a way of life for a host of publishers, editors, and reporters, including the early presence of a significant number of women. Eventually, feature sections arose, including comics, sports, puzzles, cartoons, advice columns, and sections for women and children. The hometown daily gave way to larger and impersonal newspaper chains in the early twentieth century. This comprehensive and lively account tells the story of how newspapers have influenced public opinion and how public demand has in turn affected the presentation of the news.

Newspapers on the Minnesota Frontier, 1849-1860

By: George Hage

Minnesota Territory's earliest publications in St. Paul and St. Anthony (now Minneapolis) were known for their "vigorous expression of strong-minded opinion." This lively account of old-style journalism examines the emergence of daily papers and some 100 English- and foreign-language weeklies in the communities beyond the Twin Cities, including the Emigrant Aid Journal of Nininger, the Chatfield Democrat, the Winona Republican, and early St. Cloud newspapers. Finally, author George Hage explores the rise of the state's large metropolitan dailies and the people, issues, and politics that affected their growth. An appendix lists the papers published in Minnesota from 1849 to 1860.
