Mrs. Morton, an elderly lady suffering from dementia, loves the written word; her books are warm reminders of happier times. From her nursing home room in Melbourne, Australia, Mrs. Morton travels the fading recesses of her memory. Her disease causes a blending of realities, as her own memories become inextricably entangled with those of the heroine of her favourite novel, Night of the Seventh Dream. As two sets of memories intertwine-hers and the fictional tales of Beatty, a remarkable young woman who bravely overcame adversity and challenge during the Second World War-Mrs. Morton finds comfort in the adventures of the past. Did Mrs. Morton help to raise her sibling after losing loved ones to that war, doing what needed to be done to survive-or was that Beatty? She kept the family beekeeping business humming during dark times and worked as a cleaner to help support her family. When young love with a soldier on his way to war produced the shocking news of a baby on the way, she stood tall despite the cold shoulders from the local church. Not even the loss of her beekeeping business could bring this fictional fighter down. Mrs. Morton's ravaged mind takes her on fascinating journeys in her sleep. These nocturnal musings are both guiding-and confounding. On the night of Mrs. Morton's seventh dream, the two lives-that of the fictional girl from the novel and the befuddled elderly lady who enjoys reading about her-merge.

Democratising Beauty in Nineteenth-Century Britain

Democratising Beauty in Nineteenth-Century Britain

Art and the Politics of Public Life

By: Lucy Hartley

Could the self-interested pursuit of beauty actually help to establish the moral and political norms that enable democratic society to flourish? In this book, Lucy Hartley identifies a new language for speaking about beauty, which begins to be articulated from the 1830s in a climate of political reform and becomes linked to emerging ideals of equality, liberty, and individuality. Examining British art and art writing by Charles Lock Eastlake, John Ruskin, Walter Pater, Edward Poynter, William Morris, and John Addington Symonds, Hartley traces a debate about what it means to be interested in beauty and whether this preoccupation is necessary to public political life. Drawing together political history, art history, and theories of society, and supplemented by numerous illustrations, Democratising Beauty in Nineteenth-Century Britain offers a fresh interdisciplinary understanding of the relation of art to its publics.

Il Dolce Far Niente

The Italian Way of Summer

By: Lucy Laucht

This book is a gorgeous, photographic ode to the magic of southern coastal Italy in the summer by renowned travel, fashion, and lifestyle photographer Lucy Laucht. A languorous August afternoon. That brilliant light and those impossible Mediterranean blues. The touch of sun on hot skin. And everywhere, the sounds of laughter and lighthearted conversation. Captured by photographer Lucy Laucht, these lyrical scenes of Naples, Ischia, the Amalfi Coast, Capri, Puglia, Sicily, and the Aeolian and Egadi Islands are an ode to the Italian way of summer and that distinctly Italian art of sweet idleness.

Mechanisms of Clinical Signs

Mechanisms of Clinical Signs

By: Mark Dennis,William Talbot Bowen,Lucy Cho

The first consolidated textbook explaining the mechanism of clinical signs commonly seen in medicine. Mechanisms of Clinical Signs is the first consolidated text of its kind; designed to help medical students and junior doctors understand the pathophysiological mechanisms behind clinical signs. Unlike existing clinical examination textbooks which are predominantly organised by disease systems and states, Mechanisms of Clinical Signs is arranged by body system; bridging the gap between identifying clinical signs and understanding the causes behind them. Presented in a useful handbook style, Mechanisms of Clinical Signs discusses the evidence base and clinical value of each clinical sign to assist with interpretation. Examples are plentiful and include such signs as distinctive tremors in a Parkinson's disease patient and red hands on a patient with liver disease. As well as being an easy-to-follow reference for clinical signs seen on the ward, Mechanisms of Clinical Signs is an excellent study aid - particularly useful for those preparing for 'Viva' or 'OSCE' practical stations. The ability to accurately identify and interpret clinical signs of disease upon examination is a vital first step in correct diagnosis and treatment. Mechanisms of Clinical Signs is therefore an essential textbook for medical students and new practitioners. Online StudentConsult resources accompany Mechanisms of Clinical Signs upon purchase.
