‘The Man’ and his associates have no morals. White-slaving, blackmail, terrorism, torture and mini-battles on the high seas are all fair game. Against them is Lady Jennifer Norrington and her team. The storyline is both exciting and realistic, with sub-plots adding tension and originality. Not one to be missed by adherents of the thriller genre!

Medicine Before Science

The Business of Medicine from the Middle Ages to the Enlightenment

By: Roger Kenneth French

This book offers an introduction to the history of university-trained physicians from the middle ages to the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. These were the elite, in reputation and rewards, and they were successful. Yet we can form little idea of their clinical effectiveness, and to modern eyes their theory and practice often seems bizarre. But the historical evidence is that they were judged on other criteria, and the argument of this book is that these physicians helped to construct the expectations of society--and met them accordingly.
