The Doctor’s World The Life and Times of Claver Morris 1659 - 1727

This is the story of the extraordinary life of Claver Morris and the society in which he lived. After his marriage at Chelsea in 1685 Claver Morris moved to Somerset where he established an outstanding reputation for his work as a physician. His diaries show us how he worked with apothecaries and surgeons and travelled widely to treat all kind of patients from the children of the poor to those of the landed gentry. The diaries also tell us about the joys and pains of Claver’s personal and family life and of his various intrigues. Claver Morris was a man of many talents: immensely enterprising knowledgeable sociable and loving. His house was always filled with music guests and entertainments. Yet he was often faced with disputes and troubles partly of his own making — as when he courted a bishop’s daughter or stole some land to build his Queen Anne house. The Doctor’s World provides a unique portrait of a physician living and working through the political and religious turmoils that beset the nation at the turn of the eighteenth century. Tales of medical treatments clandestine marriages and self-serving priests are entwined with famous acts of treason and rebellion and the pleasures and tragedies of daily life. This meticulously researched book will appeal to all readers of social political medical and family history. | The Doctor’s World The Life and Times of Claver Morris 1659 - 1727

A Dictionary of Congenital Malformations and Disorders

This is a complete medically reliable dictionary of congenital malformations and disorders. As the authors explain Down syndrome is the only common congenital disorder; the other defects and disorders are rare or very rare some having been reported fewer than 20 times worldwide. This dictionary covers them all. Examples:Aagenaes syndrome is due to congenital hypoplasia of lymph vessels which causes lymphedema of the legs and recurrent cholestasis in infancy and slow progress to hepatic cirrhosis and giant-cell hepatitis with fibrosis of the portal tracts. Acrocallosal syndrome is characterized by total or partial absence of the corpus callosum craniofacial dysmorphism polydactyly and severe mental retardation. Other features can be retinal pigmentation anomalies optic atrophy strabismus nystagmus cleft lip and palate cardiovascular anomalies hernia abnormal nipples and fits. Acrodysostosis is characterized by prenatal growth deficiency brachycephaly de formities of the humerus radius and ulna short and broad hands hypoplastic maxilla and mental retardation. | A Dictionary of Congenital Malformations and Disorders

Conquest and Redemption A History of Jewish Assets from the Holocaust

In Conquest and Redemption Gregg J. Rickman explains how the Nazis stole the possessions of their Jewish victims and obtained the cooperation of institutions across Europe in these crimes of convenience. He also describes how those institutions are being brought to justice sixty years later for their retention of their ill-gotten gains. Rickman not only explains how the robbery was accomplished tracked stalled and then finally reversed but also clearly shows the ways in which robbery was inextricably connected to the murder of the Jews. The Nazis took everything from Jews-their families their possessions and even their names. As with the murder of Jews the Nazis' robbery was an organized institutionalized effort. Jews were isolated robbed and left homeless regarded as parasites in the Nazis' eyes and thus fair game. In short the organized robbery of the Jews facilitated their slaughter. How did the German people come to believe that it was permissible to isolate outlaw rob and murder Jews? A partial explanation can be found in the Nazis' creation of a virtual religion of German nationalism and homogeneity that delegitimized Jews as a people and as individuals. This belief system was expressed through a complex structure of religious rules practices and institutions. While Nazi ideology was the guiding principle how that ideology was formed and how it was applied is important to understand if one is to fully grasp the Holocaust. Rickman painstakingly describes the structural composition and motivation for the plundering of Jewish assets. The Holocaust will always remain a memory of unequalled pain and suffering but as Rickman shows the return of stolen goods to their survivors is a partial victory for the long aggrieved. Conquest and Redemption will be of interest to students and scholars in the history of the Holocaust and its aftermath. | Conquest and Redemption A History of Jewish Assets from the Holocaust

Lithium Niobate Nanophotonics

Photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology holds great potential for breaking through the bottlenecks in current photonic and optoelectronic networks. Recently a revolution has been witnessed in the field of lithium niobate (LN) photonics. Over the past decade nanoscale LN waveguides with a propagation loss of ~0. 01 dB and a radius of curvature on the level of ~100 μm have been demonstrated. The revolution mainly benefits from two technological advancements the maturity of lithium-niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) technology and the innovation of nanofabrication approaches of high-quality LNOI photonic structures. Using low-loss waveguides and high-quality-factor (high-Q) microresonators produced on the LNOI platform as building blocks various integrated photonic devices have been demonstrated with unprecedented performances. The breakthroughs have reshaped the landscape of the LN industry. This is the first monograph on LN nanophotonics enabled by the LNOI platform. It comprehensively reviews the development of fabrication technology investigations on nonlinear optical processes and demonstrations of electro-optical devices as well as applications in quantum light sources spectroscopy sensing and microwave-to-optical wave conversion. The book begins with an overview of the technological evolution of PICs justifying the motivation for developing LNOI photonics. The next four chapters focus on LNOI photonics. The book concludes with a summary of the milestone achievements discussed in these chapters and provides a future perspective of this area of research. | Lithium Niobate Nanophotonics

Basics of CNC Programming

Before the introduction of automatic machines and automation industrial manufacturing of machines and their parts for the key industries were made though manually operated machines. Due to this manufacturers could not make complex profiles or shapes with high accuracy. As a result the production rate tended to be slow production costs were very high rejection rates were high and manufacturers often could not complete tasks on time. Industry was boosted by the introduction of the semi-automatic manufacturing machine known as the NC machine which was introduced in the 1950��s at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the USA. After these NC machine started to be used typical profiles and complex shapes could get produced more readily which in turn lead to an improved production rate with higher accuracy. Thereafter in the 1970��s an even larger revolutionary change was introduced to manufacturing namely the use of the CNC machine (Computer Numerical Control). Since then CNC has become the dominant production method in most manufacturing industries including automotive aviation defence oil and gas medical electronics industry and the optical industry. Basics of CNC Programming describes how to design CNC programs and what cutting parameters are required to make a good manufacturing program. The authors explain about cutting parameters in CNC machines such as cutting feed depth of cut rpm cutting speed etc. and they also explain the G codes and M codes which are common to CNC. The skill-set of CNC program writing is covered as well as how to cut material during different operations like straight turning step turning taper turning drilling chamfering radius profile profile turning etc. In so doing the authors cover the level of CNC programming from basic to industrial format. Drawings and CNC programs to practice on are also included for the reader.

Random Circulant Matrices

Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been extensively used in many scientific areas. This book studies the properties of the eigenvalues for various types of circulant matrices such as the usual circulant the reverse circulant and the k-circulant when the dimension of the matrices grow and the entries are random. In particular the behavior of the spectral distribution of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point processes are developed systematically using the method of moments and the various powerful normal approximation results. This behavior varies according as the entries are independent are from a linear process and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup Bose obtained his B. Stat. M. Stat. and Ph.
