 | Midwives, Society and Childbirth - Hilary, Marland 10 Digit ISBN: 0415133289 13 Digit ISBN: 9780415133289 | | "Midwives, Society and Childbirth" examines midwives' lives and work in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries on a national and international scale, focusing on six countries from Europe, including Denmark, Italy, England and Spain, and the United States. Questioning many conventional historical assumptions, this book is fundamental to a better understanding of the effect on midwives of the unprecedented progress of science, especially obstetric science, from the late nineteenth century. The contributors challenge the traditional bleak picture of midwives' decline in the face of institutional obstetrics, medical technology, and the growing power of the medical profession. Ultimately an original and finely nuanced picture emerges, where the experience and status of midwives was affected above all by regional influences, and where the importance of locality is stressed. |
 | Mies Van Der Rohe: 1886-1969 - Claire, Zimmerman 10 Digit ISBN: 3822836435 13 Digit ISBN: 9783822836439 | | Less is more: finding perfection in purity Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886?1969) was one of the founding fathers of modern architecture. The creator of the Barcelona Pavilion (1929), the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois (1945?1951) and the Seagram Building in New York (1954?1958), Mies was one of the founders of a new architectural style. Well known for his motto ?less is more, ? he sought a kind of refined purity in architectural expression that was not seen in the reduced vocabulary of other Bauhaus members. His goal was not simply building for those of modest income (Existenzminimum) but building economically in terms of sustainability, both in a technical and aesthetical way; the use of industrial materials such as steel and glass were the foundation of this approach. Though the extreme reduction of form and material in his work garnered some criticism, over the years many have tried?mostly unsuccessfully?to copy his original and elegant style. This book explores more than 20 of his projects between 1906 and 1967, from his early work around Berlin to his most important American buildings. Basic Architecture features: ? Each title contains approximately 120 images, including photographs, sketches, drawings, and floor plans ? Introductory essays explore the architect's life and work, touching on family and background as well as collaborations with other architects ? The body presents the most important works in chronological order, with descriptions of client and/or architect wishes, construction problems (why some projects were never executed), and resolutions ? The appendix includes a list of complete or selected works, biography, bibliography and a map indicating the locations ofthe architect's most famous buildings |

"Migraine Art "collects outstanding examples of such work, along with descriptions of types of migraine visual phenomena. The book features a comprehensive view of the migraine aura experience and covers such topics as migraine signs, symptoms, triggers, and treatments, as well as types of visual hallucinations and somatic sensations and experiences. Each category of visual disturbance is accompanied by related artwork. A discussion of the migraine visual experiences of famous historical figures, such as Blaise Pascal and Lewis Carroll, provides historical context. The book also includes a history of our Migraine Art competitions and information about the fascinating Migraine Art collection. |
