Public Health at the Crossroads: Achievements and Prospects

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beaglehole, Robert / Bonita, Ruth, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book, both an introduction to public health as a discipline and a critique of its development over recent times, reviews epidemiological and demographic trends internationally. It provides an overview of major health trends; a summary of the current state of the world's health; a review of recent estimates of the global burden of disease; and an examination of the pattern of modern epidemics, the impact of disability, and the causes of premature death in rich and poor countries alike. With examples drawn from diverse geographical and medical areas, this text challenges clinicians and public health practitioners at all levels. The authors argue for an inclusive vision of public health based on the application in public policy of improved epidemiological understanding of the causes of disease.

Edge of Empire: Lives, Culture, and Conquest in the East,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Jasanoff, Maya, PUBLISHER: Knopf Publishing Group, A Palladian mansion filled with Western art in the center of old Calcutta, the Mughal emperor's letters in an archive in the French Alps, the names of Italian adventurers scratched into the walls of Egyptian temples. In this imaginative book, Maya Jasanoff delves into the stories behind vestiges such as these to uncover the lives of people, collectors in India and Egypt, who lived on the frontiers of the British Empire during a pivotal century of its formation. From household names like Clive of India and Napoleon Bonaparte to little-known figures such as the circus strongman Giambattista Belzoni or the Swiss mercenary Antoine Polier, "Edge of Empire" traces the exploits of collectors to tell an intimate history of imperialism. Jasanoff delves beneath the grand narratives of power, exploitation, and resistance to look at the British Empire through the eyes of the people caught up in it. What does empire look like from the inside out? Written and researched on four continents, "Edge of Empire" makes an original and significant contribution to international history. Jasanoff offers a fresh account of European imperialism that challenges received wisdom about how imperial power was asserted in Asia and the Middle East. She shows us that Britain's expansion involved more than the mere imposition of an "imperial project" over foreign subjects, and that the stereotypical "white man's burden" ideology emerged only after long years of cross-cultural encounters. "Edge of Empire" enters a world where people lived, loved, mingled, and identified with one another in ways richer and more complex than previous accounts have led us to believe were possible. And as this book demonstrates, traces ofthat world remain tangible-and topical-today. An innovative, persuasive, and provocative work of history.

The Reign of Napoleon Bonaparte

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Asprey, Robert, PUBLISHER: Basic Books (AZ), Robert Asprey completes his definitive, two-volume biography with an intimate, fast-paced look at Napoleon's daring reign and tragic demise with more of the personality and passion that marked the first volume of this cradle to the grave biography. In The Rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, Asprey showed us that Napoleon was not the father of chaos, but rather an heir to it. In this companion volume, we see Napoleon struggling to subdue the turmoil. We peer over Napoleon's shoulder as he solidifies his growing empire through a series of marriages, military victories, and shrewd diplomatic manipulations. We watch Napoleon lose control of his empire, plot his return from Elba, rally peasants in his march to Paris, endure defeat at Waterloo and suffer exile and a lonely death on the island of St. Helena. Robert Asprey tells this fascinating, tragic tale in lush narrative detail.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Coggeshall, John M. / Nast, Jo A. / Tindall, Randy, PUBLISHER: Southern Illinois University Press, Featuring 157 photographs by Randy Tindall with explanatory text, this book preserves both the architectural and cultural heritage of the French, Anglo-Americans, Germans, Poles, Italians, and Slovakians in 16 counties of southern Illinois. Drawing on interviews as well as empirical research, the authors examine the various ethnic influences on vernacular architecture (everyday structures built without the aid of an architect). To that end they illustrate and discuss domestic, commercial, and ecclesiastical building styles, the cultural use of space, place-names, epigraphs and related inscriptions, settlement patterns, and some types of folk art and material culture. They show through text and photograph what the immigrants brought to southern Illinois and how their influence remains today.
