Book Description

Should be read by...every specialist in public administration in Ireland and England during the nineteenth century. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW **`Choice' Outstanding Academic Book of 1998**In mid-nineteenth-century Ireland there existed a system of medical relief for the poor, via a country-wide system of dispensaries, superior to any public health system in England and arguably in Europe. This book examines the dispensary system and Irish health policy and administration in general, focusing upon the Medical Charities Act of 1851, which placed medical relief under the control of the Irish Poor Law Commission. The Commission's origin, motivation and effect (for example on epidemic control, cholera and famine) are analysed in detail, together with the pre-famine medical charities it replaced and the reorganised poor law system, taking the story through to 1872. The argument is set firmly in the context of the pattern of government growth, of British medical politics as a whole, and of British policy in Ireland; it also shows how the Irish experience influenced developing British policies on health provision. R.D. CASSELL is Professor of History at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Book Description

Over the years researchers have reported solubility data in the chemical, pharmaceutical, engineering, and environmental literature for several thousand organic compounds. Until now, this information has been scattered throughout the literature. Containing over 16,000 solubility data points for more than 4,000 organic compounds, Handbook of Aqueous Solubility Data provides an extensive compilation of published aqueous solubility data for a wide variety of organic nonelectrolytes and unionized weak electrolytes. It includes data for pharmaceuticals, pollutants, nutrients, herbicides, pesticides, agricultural, industrial, and energy related compounds. Each compound is identified by a sequential number along with molecular formula, compound name, synonyms, molecular weight, CAS Registry Number, melting point, and boiling point if available. Each entry has a five-point evaluation score for the quality of the reporting of the data, along with the full citation, and comments from the authors when necessary. The user-friendly format gives a clear depiction of each piece of solubility data with enough information to estimate its validity. Handbook of Aqueous Solubility Data gives you a portable, accessible resource for solubility data of numerous compounds and a single system for the evaluation of the data supplied.

Book Description

The first part of this book presents the essential topics for an introduction to deterministic optimal control theory. The second part introduces stochastic optimal control for Markov diffusion processes. It also inlcudes two other topics important for applications, namely, the solution to the stochastic linear regulator and the separation principle.

Book Description

This book presents a systematic account of the development of deterministic, continuous time, optimal control problems defined on an unbounded time interval, based on work ranging from the early seventies to the present. The authors have strived to present the work in a manner accessible to a broad audience. With this in mind, the first five chapters require, for the most part, a minimal knowledge of mathematical control theory and therefore provide a good introduction to the subject. The remainder of the book requires more sophisticated mathematics. Throughout the book it is possible to distinguish three categories of research. First, the extension of the classical necessary conditions to the various weaker types of optimality (eg. overtaking optimality); secondly, the discussion of various sufficient conditions and verification theorems; and finally, the discussion of existence theorems for the various types of optimality. The common link between these categories is the "Turnpike Property". Once this property is seen to hold, it is possible to begin investigating the above categories.

Book Description

"Bosnian Counterpoint" evokes childhood memories of a Bosnia in which diverse ethnic and religious groups lived in mutual respect and tolerance. "Bosnian Counterpoint" was translated into Swedish and published in Lund as "Bosnisk Corsvaeg" in 1996. Subsequently, it was published in Serbo-Croatian in Tuzla, Bosnia, as "Bosanski Kontrapunkt" in 1999.

"[Levy's] recollections are delightful, loving, and unique."-New York Times

"A lovely, loving memoir."-Blanche Wiesen Cook, Winner of the L.A. Times Book Prize for Eleanor Roosevelt, 1884—1933, Vol. 1

"[A] loving remembrance."-Kirkus Reviews

One of the most admired women of the twentieth century, Eleanor Roosevelt will always be remembered for her remarkable achievements as First Lady, United Nations official, and passionate advocate for the causes she held close to her heart. Now, through fascinating anecdotes, many of them totally fresh, William Turner Levy-a close friend of the former First Lady-gives us an intimate look at Eleanor Roosevelt and the way she viewed the world. And with the help of acclaimed historian Cynthia Eagle Russett, we also see Eleanor Roosevelt's role in shaping American and international politics. In this rare book, we gain a cherished glimpse of the extraordinary Mrs. R-as if she were our friend, too. An enchanting portrait of Eleanor Roosevelt in all her human dimensions-with fascinating anecdotes of the people she knew and loved-this refreshing and affectionate memoir reveals the fun-loving, intelligent, and vibrant woman behind the public persona.

A LOVING MEMOIR OF A FRIENDSHIP WITH MRS. ROOSEVELT.......1999-11-20

This short magical book, with 30 intmate photographs, does a great service to all who may have wished they had known Mrs. Roosevelt(The "Mrs.R" of the title). The author, William Turner Levy, reveals, in the affectionate telling of his longstanding friendship with Mrs. R, very touching and human dimensions to the already very detailed and historic portrait of Mrs. Roosevelt. It is through his enchanting and loving memoir, told through short delightful anadotes, that I gained new insights and perspectives into the private life and personality of Mrs. R. Indeed, not only did I gain nuance, I gained a strong emotional sense of who this woman really was. The excellent comments incorporated throughout the book of Cynthia Eagle Russet, a professor of history at Yale University, provided valuable historical and contextual insight into the significance of the role of Mrs. Roosevelt in shaping history and politics. I highly recommend this charming book to all those interested in Mrs. R and a part of American history coming alive in new and fascinating ways.

This book is destined to be a classic!.......1999-07-11

Every now and then a book comes along that is so well written, so unique, so marvelous that it stays with you long after you have laid it aside. This book is like that. If there is any justice in the publishing world this book will be a best seller and earn a place in the classic catagory. It's that good. Henry Elijah "Lige" Langston was born in 1908 in the Great Basin outback on a homestead. He worked his entire life as a wrangler and rawhide braider in the region known as the Sagebrush Corner of northeastern California and northwestern Nevada. Hussa tells his story with a mosaic of memories blending oral history, storytelling and poetry. Interspersed throughout are Lige's own words which fill in the gaps in an honest, unflinching, matter of fact manner. The character that emerges from the experiences of love, fear, courage, and pride in overcoming adversities of every stripe is one you will never forget. The story of individuals growing up in the West has been told many times. But never like this. This is a gentle, respectful, lyrical book that quietly tells the story of a real man, living in a hostile environment, in a most remarkable manner. Hussa has succeeded in a way most writers strive for but never achieve. Sweet Iron? After reading this masterpiece you will never look at a horse's bridle in the same way.

Book Description

Chancellor of the Exchequer between 1947 and 1950, Sir Stafford Cripps was the most substantial figure in Clement Attlee's ground-breaking 1945-51 government, serving as one of Attlee's "Big Five." Cripps became identified with the national mood as the country struggled to make its recovery from the war, and he was also a significant minister in Churchill's wartime coalition government, even coming close to toppling Churchill and becoming Prime Minister himself in 1942.
