Scabies And Other Mite Infestations
Authors: Beesley W N 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Species of mites of animals and birds are considered which affect man either directly by causing primary irritation, hypersensitivity reactions, etc. or as vectors of diseases such as scrub typhus. The most important genera of mites in the two categories are Sarcoptes and Leptotrombidium. Details are given of the biology, diagnosis, pathology, immunolog}7, and control of these and other mites which transfer from animals to humans.
Occasional And Miscellaneous Zoonoses And Opportunistic Infections
Authors: Lloyd Sheelagh 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Immatures often are identified after surgical removal of a nodule. Eggs are easily overlooked as they resemble hookworm eggs. Ternidens deminutus eggs are in fact larger, 70-94 by 40-60 /im. Oesophagostomum is diagnosed on cultured L3 (Blotkamp et al. 1993) which are 700-950 /rm (larger than Necator) with prominent intestinal cells and a long ‘hair-like’ tail to the transversely striated sheath. Adults are about 1 cm long: T. deminutus has a globose buccal capsule, mouth collar, and leaf crown (Goldsmid and Lyons 1973); Oesophagostomum a cylindrical buccal capsule, double leaf crown, cephalic vesicle, and distinct ventral groove. An IgG4 ELISA for Oesophagostomum is under experimental evaluation.
Assessment

Abstract
Marx’s influence, in both theory and practice, is beyond measure. There are so many aspects of the current world, and current world of ideas, that we would simply be unable to grasp without an appreciation of at least the bold outlines of Marx’s thought. This alone would be enough to justify close attention. But there is much more to it than this, although perhaps it is not quite so easy to convey.
Hunted Through Central Asia
Authors: Nazaroff Paul , Burr Malcolm 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
My position was uncomfortable. Here was I, in an absolutely exposed place, with Red Guards and commissars on every side. I had very little money left and no means of transport at all.' Paul Nazaroff was the ringleader of a desperate plot to overthrow the Bolsheviks in Central Asia in 1918. He was betrayed to the Secret Police, who declared him 'the most dangerous counter-revolutionary at large in the Tashkent region'. Thus began his extraordinary catalogue of adventures, 'a long and distant odyssey which would take me right across Central Asia . . . over the Himalayas to the plains of Hindustan'. As he fled from Lenin's men, he was aided by the indigenous peoples of the region, the Kirghiz and the Sarts, whose language and culture had been steeped in since boyhood. For months he was forced to live the life of a hunted animal. Peter Hopkirk has contributed a fascinating introduction to this tale of hair-breadth 'scapes and survival against all odds, as well as an epilogue which reveals Nazaroff's later fortunes.
History of the Jews in Modern Times
Authors: Gartner Lloyd P 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Lloyd Gartner presents, in chronologically-arranged chapters, the story of the changing fortunes of the Jewish communities of the Old World (in Europe and the Middle East and beyond) and their gradual expansion into the New World of the Americas. The book starts in 1650, when there were no more than one and a quarter million Jews in the world (less than a sixth of the number at the start of the Christian era). Gartner leads us through the traditions, religious laws, communities and their interactions with their neighbours, through the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, and into Emancipation, the dark shadows of anti-Semitism, the impact of World War II, bringing us up to the twentieth century through Zionism, and the foundation of Israel. Throughout, the story is powerful and engrossing - enlivened by curious detail and vivid insights. Gartner, an expert guide and scholar on the subject, writing from within the Jewish community, remains objective and effective whilst being careful to introduce and explain Jewish terminology and Jewish institutions as they appear in the text. This is a superb introductory account - authoritative, in control, lively of the central threads in one of the greatest historical tapestries of modern times.
Forging a national identity: Prose literature down to the time of Augustus
Authors: Kraus Christina s. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Cato was an old man when Karneades the Academic and Diogenes the Stoic philosopher came to Rome Karneades was highly charismatic, no less impressive in reality than in reputation, and it was he in particular who won large and sympathetic audiences. Like a wind, his presence filled the city with noise, as the word spread about a Greek with an extraordinary ability to amaze his audiences. People said that he had instilled in the young men of the city a fierce passion which caused them to banish all their other pleasures and pastimes, and succumb to love of knowledge.... Right from the start Cato worried that the young men of the city might find a reputation for eloquence more desirable than one gained for prac tical and military achievements In the course of trying to tum his son
Charting the poles of history: Herodotos and Thoukydides
Authors: Kurke Leslie 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Herodotos and Thoukydides, the two fifth-century practitioners of history whose works survive, together defined the parameters of history for the Western tradition. Thus, though the books they wrote are in many ways very different, they need to be read and considered in tandem. In the modern world, the relative respect and attention the two have received tend to correlate directly with contemporary notions of what history is or should be. When ‘scientific history’ was in vogue (mid-nineteenth to mid-twentieth centuries), Thoukydides was a hero of objectivity and accuracy, while Herodotos was denigrated and pitied for his naïveté and childlike story-telling.
Maintaining Self-Respect
Authors: Kessler-Harris Alice 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Looking at the range of depression-fostered initiatives around labor and employment policy, one is struck first by how profoundly the expectations of ordinary people altered. Americans moved from staunch opposition to federal government intervention in the lives of most men (but not women) to eager experiments with government mediation of every kind. Newly adopted social policies had many goals, but among the most dramatic were those connected with earning wages and keeping jobs. By the mid-1930s, a newly authoritative federal government had acknowledged a role for organized labor and begun to subject business to a range of restrictive, though sometimes welcome, regulation. To be sure, the federal government had not generally been demurely silent in the face of struggles between business and labor. More frequently than not, it had intervened on behalf of business to still the discontent that emerged when market forces created havoc with workers’ lives. And, its own civil servants and railroad workers aside, federal legislative and judicial bodies had resolutely left to the states the task of constructing labor legislation.
Translator’S Note
Authors: Lembke Janet , Reckford Kenneth J 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
One of the principles underlying Oxford’s series “The Greek Tragedy in New Translations” is that the latter be performable. This is a praiseworthy and necessary aim, but how can it be achieved? The answer lies, I believe, in testing through performance. Plays exist only secondarily as literature. Like music and dance, they are, first and foremost, part of the performing arts.
Incantations and Prayers for Salvation on Inscribed Greek Amulets
Authors: Kotansky Roy 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The use of magic for protection and deliverance from diseases must have been widespread from the earliest times.1 The sufferer had recourse to healing through prayers and offerings, rites of incubation, and any number of rituals performed by itinerant holy men who adhered to that heterodox and often arcane aspect of religion known as “magic.”2 Apart from the more empirically minded doctors, a wide variety of practitioners from herb-gatherers to midwives could be sought for remedies in the classical period.3 As an infection festered or a fever lingered, even the sternest critics of traditional or “superstitious” remedies turned to the application of amulets. In his lost Ethics,Theophrastus questions whether a man’s character changes when the circumstances of his life change, and he reports how the “freethinking” Pericles, sick with the plague, had been prodded by his womenfolk into wearing an amulet (Frag. L21 Fortenbaugh); Diogenes Laertius tells a similar deathbed tale about the philosopher and notorious atheist Bion, who at the end of his life dons amulets and renounces his former attacks “against religion” (, 4.54; cf. 4.56–57). Both anecdotes, whether historically accurate or not, present a plausible picture of competing cures and “second opinions” as a disease worsens and seem to set the use of amulets squarely within the sphere of traditional beliefs.
The Widening Struggle, Growing Militancy, and the Hope of Liberty for All
Authors: Horton James Oliver , Horton Lois E 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Few understood the precariousness of African-American freedom better than Solomon Northup. He was the freeborn son of a former slave who had acquired enough land in Washington County to qualify as a voter in New York State, and spent his youth there, doing farm work with his father, cultivating a love for books, and playing the violin, what he called “the ruling passion of my youth.” In 1829 his father died and Northup married Anne Hampton, a local young woman of African, European, and American Indian ancestry who worked as a cook. He worked for a time on the Champlain Canal and then moved to the village of Kingsbury where he farmed a small plot of land and supplemented his income by playing the violin for local parties and dances. In the early spring of 1834, the Northups moved to Saratoga Springs, New York where Solomon drove a hack, worked on the Troy and Saratoga Railroad, and played his violin at resorts. He and Anne were both employed at the United States Hotel, and there he met slaves who accompanied their vacationing southern masters, puzzling over the power that could hold a human being in bondage against his will.
The Lost Empire
Authors: Barnett Victoria 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
They Were Born during the German Empire, in the final years of the reigns of the provincial German princes and of Kaiser Wilhelm II from the royal Prussian House of Hohenzollern. Toward the ends of their lives, Germans who remembered that era spoke of it in tones that evoked pictures of a lost, more civilized world, bathed in a calm and quiet light, like the final warm autumn days that precede a long winter. Perhaps their memories were so colored because those years were their childhood, a time that, for all but the most unfortunate, seems filled with new beginnings and possibilities. They saw the years between 1890 and 1914 as a golden age, ended with terrible finality by World War I. Like other Europeans, the Germans grieved for the past, site of their earliest memories and lost innocence.
The Weimar Years
Authors: Barnett Victoria 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
A New European Order had been created, but many Germans believed that it was fl.based upon the deliberate humiliation of Germany. Throughout the 1920s, German resentment festered like an unhealed wound. Every political crisis reopened it, and what the Germans called the Schandvertrag-the treaty of dishonor-was invoked as the cause of Germany’s bad fortune. Over 60 years later, Stefanie von Mackensen’s voice still grew bitter when she recalled how the Versailles Treaty had affected her. Newly married, she lived in Dusseldorf: In Diisseldorf, the left side of the Rhine was occupied by the French and the right side was free. My parents lived on the right side of the Rhine; I lived on the left side. Every time I crossed the bridge over the Rhine, they physically searched me. We weren’t allowed on the sidewalks when a French officer was present. I lived through all these things, these small humiliations, and they exerted a powerful influence on my national attitudes. I joined the Nazi party in 1932. The youth today can’t understand that at all. One can’t understand it.
Postwar Germans And Their Church: Rebirth or Restoration
Authors: Barnett Victoria 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In 1967, The Neurologist Alexander Mitscherlich and his wife, the psychoanalyst Margarete Mitscherlich, wrote a book, Die Unfiihigkeit zu Trauern (The Inability to Mourn 1), in which they examined the ways in which Germans’ unresolved and denied guilt about the Nazi past had influenced the course of postwar German society. One of the Mitscherlichs’ theories was that, in effect, Nazism had destroyed the parts of the German cultural, religious, and political tradition it had used. For many Germans, particularly for the generation born after 1945, it was easier to break entirely with certain traditions than to attempt to reconstruct them in the postwar, post-Holocaust era. This break created an emotional distance to the past that the Mitscherlichs described as “the inability to mourn.
How to Read Karl Barth
Authors: Hunsinger George 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This is a major new study of the thought of the great Protestant theologian Karl Barth (1886-1968). George Hunsinger has discovered a series of motifs that pervade and underlie Barth's great work, the Church Dogmatics. He presents a sophisticated array of modes of thought that serve as a guide to and method of understanding the many facets of Barth's writing.
Lift Slope and Drag Rise at Sonic Speed
Authors: Ramm Heinrich J 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Although, as has been shown in the preceding chapters, and will become even more obvious in the following chapters, the computation and the experimental determination of the aerodynamic coefficients at M ∞ = 1 are very difficult tasks, the slope of the cP vs. M ∞ curve at M ∞ = 1, and thus the lift slope and the drag rise at this Mach number, can be computed approximately with amazing simplicity. This is of importance when experimental data up to high subsonic velocities and supersonic data from slightly supersonic Mach numbers upward are available. These two curves may be connected with good accuracy by giving the curve the slope at M ∞ = 1 that now will be derived.
Analytical Solutions of the Transonic Continuity Equation
Authors: Ramm Heinrich J 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the previous chapters the difficulty of solving the transonic equation because of its nonlinearity was pointed out. Several methods were given that bypass this difficulty and arrive at useful results. However, these methods are limited in their applicability. In this chapter, two major efforts will be discussed that have markedly extended the range of problems that may be solved analytically and have led to the “area rule,” the indispensable tool of the aircraft designer. A third approach, the so-called similarity solutions, has played an important role in the treatment of mainly basic problems.
Islamic Reform
Authors: Commins David Dean 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This book examines Syria's religious, intellectual, and political history during the period of transformation before World War I. Focusing on an attempt to reform Islamic belief and practice at the turn of the century, Commins shows how the reformers used debates over the religious law of Islam to advance their visions of a progressive Islamic state. Based on a wide variety of previously unpublished sources, the book will shed new light on a period that is of considerable importance for the modern history of the Middle East.
The Power of Place: Oral Traditions at Rural Kandyan N ā tha D ē v ā layas
Authors: Holt John Clifford 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The myth of N ā tha’s defeat at the hands of Pitiye is the most frequently told story about N ā tha Dēviyō in the Kandyan cultural area. At each of the N ā tha dēvālayas except Vegiriya, the story is repeated today with much enthusiasm and in great detail. In fact, the myth functions as a “charter,” in the Malinowskian sense, for both the Pasgama and the Kandy N ā tha d ē v ā layas.

Ouaternionic Quantum Mechanics and Ouanturn Fields
Authors: Adler Stephen L 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
It has been known since the 1930s that quantum mechanics can be formulated in quaternionic as well as complex Hilbert space. But systematic work on the quaternionic extension of standard quantum mechanics has scarcely begun. Authored by a world-renowned theoretical physicist, this book signals a major conceptual advance and gives a detailed development and exposition of quaternionic quantum mechanics for the purpose of determining whether quaternionic Hilbert space is the appropriate arena for the long sought-after unification of the standard model forces with gravitation. Significant results from earlier literature, together with many new results obtained by the author, are integrated to give a coherent picture of the subject. The book also provides an introduction to the problem of formulating quantum field theories in quaternionic Hilbert space. The book concludes with a chapter devoted to discussions on where quaternionic quantum mechanics may fit into the physics of unification, experimental and measurement theory issues, and the many open questions that still challenge the field. This well-written treatise is a very significant contribution to theoretical physics. It will be eagerly read by a wide range of physicists.
Before European Hegemony
Authors: Abu-Lughod Janet L 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In this important study, Janet Abu-Lughod presents a groundbreaking reinterpretation of global economic evolution and provides a new paradigm for understanding the evolution of world systems by tracing the rise of a system that, at its peak in the opening decades of the fourteenth century, involved a vast region stretching between northwest Europe and China. Writing in a clear and lively style, Abu-Lughod explores the reasons for the eventual decay of this system and the rise of European hegemony. She concludes with a provocative analysis of our current world economy, suggesting that we may be moving towards a pluralistic world similar in important respects to that of the thirteenth century.
Female Piety in Puritan New England
Authors: Porterfield Amanda 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Amanda Porterfield documents the claim that for Puritan men and women alike the ideals of selfhood were conveyed by female images. Constructed largely by men, Porterfield argues, these female images taught self-control, shaped pious ideals, and also established the standards against which the moral character of actual women was measured. Porterfield’s work reflects a synthesis of literary critical and historical methods, combining analysis of Puritan theological writings with detailed examinations of historical records of changing patterns of church membership and domestic life.
Introduction: Overview and Method
Authors: Porterfield Amanda 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The Puritans followed a long and venerable tradition when they depicted Christian faith with female imagery. Origen, Jerome, Augus¬tine, Gregory the Great, Anselm, and other church fathers had de¬ scribed both the church and the Christian soul as the bride of Christ. In the late-medieval period, Bernard of Clairvaux, Hugh of St. Victor, Catherine of Siena, Julian of Norwich, and other monastics cherished the image of the bride and often defined mystical experience as the soul’s consummation of her marriage to Christ.1 The English Protest¬ ants who developed a distinctively Puritan piety in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries relied on this richly developed theme of espousal in constructing their ideas of sainthood and church life. But even as their piety was shaped by this received tradition of imagining grace as an eager bride and the church as a devoted wife, Puritans redefined the implications of this tradition by interpreting it in the context of domestic life.
Eros, Conscience, and the Making of Puritan Society
Authors: Porterfield Amanda 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Puritans defined grace as a kind of intercourse between God and the saint that signified the saint’s espousal to God and thereby her salva¬tion, and they sometimes pictured this intercourse in a way that aroused erotic feelings that could be interpreted as the stirrings of grace. This erotic depiction of grace not only accounts for some of Puritan theology’s appeal to English women and men in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but also represents Puritan attitudes to¬ ward sexuality, which affected many aspects of Puritan life and, most especially, Puritan attitudes toward marriage. Puritan language about grace implicitly defined the nature of sexual satisfaction in terms of an encounter between male authority and female submission.
Echoes of the Call
Authors: Swanson Jeffrey 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Drawing on his study of one hundred evangelical missionaries in Ecuador, Jeffrey Swanson explores the lives of missionaries as sociological “strangers.” The work begins with the author’s interpretation of how his own experience as a child of missionaries shaped the viewpoint of estrangement from which the book is written. Swanson renders the formation of a missionary identity as the rhetorical composition of a personal testimony, in which life stories of separation, loss, conflict, and conversion are melded symbolically with historical mission themes of sacrifice, heroism, spiritual militancy, and divine calling. Relying on his subjects’ own narratives, the author traces the missionaries’ personal journeys as their sense of calling first emerges, and then as it must be reinterpreted to account for unexpected, ambiguous, and often disillusioning experiences in their host country. Swanson argues that missionaries are marginal individuals who use their vocation creatively to produce a meaningful social world, and who use rhetoric effectively to maintain that world, for themselves and for supporters in their home country. An intriguing and nuanced study, this book is a significant contribution to present sociological literature concerning missionaries and American evangelicals.
