A global "death syndrome" is paralyzing medical facilities the world over. What diabolical plot is at work? People are dying for no apparent reason. Sister Lily Elizabeth and her dedicated followers are faced with patients who were healed and are suddenly dead. There was a time when pharmaceutical companies developed drugs to cure or prevent sickness. Drugs that killed, caused birth defects, resulted in addiction, or that had side effects worse than the illnesses that they were designed to cure never reached the marketplace. When was the last time a cure was developed? There is no profit in curing illness, only in eternal treatment. Now pharmaceutical companies are simply drug dealers motivated by profit alone. This is not an expose of the pharmaceutical industry, but it makes one think. An investigation is spearheaded by the USFDA's Dr. Grayson Gill into the possible involvement of a pharmaceutical agent in this sudden-death issue. In the meantime, a diverse group of crime fighters—FBI's Alvin Brandon, Scotland Yard's Sir David Charles, and even Interpol sleuths—are investigating a possible tie to a terrorist chemical warfare conspiracy. • What does little Freddie Fender Ramirez, the Green Machine, Urbanati Construction, or Marion Pharmaceutical Corporation have to do with it? • Who are Karim Mashid, alias Jose Vigil, and Hamid Mohamed, alias Raul Benitez? • Who is Stewart Miles, and how does his discovery instigate this pandemic? • Who is Boris Silversen, and what is his connection to all of the above? As the different pieces of this mystical thriller come together, a conspiracy is revealed, crimes are solved, and justice is served, but not before thousands of innocents die. The reader is taken on a frantic journey from Thailand to Brazil, to London, England, and New York, through jungles, hospital wards, corporate boardrooms, crime groups, and behind the walls of major crime fighting organizations as the author tells this tale of adventure, murder, intrigue, and conspiracy.
Widely noted for his role in the passage of the National Reclamation Act of 1902, Francis G. Newlands of Nevada was a champion of the growth of federal power in the modernization of America. One of the few liberal national Democrats at the beginning of the twentieth century, he is known as a key architect of the modern regulatory state. Newlands worked to irrigate the Nevada desert and other arid western states with nationally funded reclamation and dam-building projects. As a leading western Progressive, he supported national planning for the utilization of all the nation's water resources, the Progressive conservation cause espoused by Republican Theodore Roosevelt, and the supervision of private corporations by an enlarged and more powerful federal government. Yet he opposed Progressives on many issues, voicing suspicions about centralized banking, defending the right of private corporations to fair treatment by public regulatory agencies, even advocating the denial of suffrage to African Americans through the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment. William Rowley's biography reveals a complicated and sophisticated man who successfully lived a dual political life under a cloud of personal and public scandal. It is a fascinating story of American politics in a time of immense national change.

In this extensively researched history of medical schools, William Rothstein, a leading historian of American medicine, traces the formation of the medical school from its origin as a source of medical lectures to its current status as a center of undergraduate and graduate medical education, biomedical research, and specialized patient care. Using a variety of historical and sociological techniques, Rothstein accurately describes methods of medical education from one generation of doctors to the next, illustrating the changing career paths in medicine. At the same time, this study considers medical schools within the context of the state of medical practice, institutions of medical care, and general higher education. The most complete and thorough general history of medical education in the United States ever written, this work focuses both on the historical development of medical schools and their current status.
This volume is the author's contribution to the Genealogy of his native state. It is the result of years of conscientious labor in this neglected field of our State History, and comprises only a portion of the material which he has gathered. On the reception of this volume, with its limited edition, will depend, in a measure, whether another volume shall follow.
Sir William Macdonald (1831-1917) is the father of the Canadian tobacco industry and one of the country's foremost educational philanthropists. His contributions to McGill University transformed it into one of the world's foremost research and teaching institutions. William Fong's biography places Macdonald's life in its historical context, painting a vivid portrait of Victorian Canada." "Born into a prominent Scottish family on Prince Edward Island, Macdonald rejected his Catholic upbringing and left home when he was eighteen. After three years in Boston as a bookkeeper he headed to Montreal and began to work as a commission agent. By 1868 Macdonald had become the leading manufacturer of chewing tobacco in Canada, and by 1885 he may have been the richest person in the country." "Macdonald turned to philanthropy when he was in his fifties; his endowments to institutions from Prince Edward Island to British Columbia made professionalism and practical education central to Canadian life. Fong describes in particular how McGill University evolved, largely through Macdonald's financial contributions, from an impoverished institution into an intellectual powerhouse. Most famously, he financed the research that led to Ernest Rutherford's Nobel Prize and to the start of the atomic age. Sir William Macdonald offers the first detailed look at the development of engineering, physics, and law at McGill."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
