From a headless burial to cocaine toothache drops, the true stories hidden in the Wild West's medical records are a match for its tallest tales. 
In the 19th century, when dying young was a fact of life, a routine bout of diarrhea could be fatal. No one had heard of viruses or bacteria, but they killed more soldiers on the frontier than hostile raiding parties. Physicians dispensed whiskey for TB, mercury for VD and arsenic for indigestion. Baseball injuries were considered to be in the line of duty and twice resulted in amputations at Fort Davis. Donna Gerstle Smith explains how an industrious laundress could earn more than a private, how a female army surgeon won the Medal of Honor and how a garrison illegally hung the local bartender.

This book provides a much-needed analysis of the changing representation of gay politicians in the UK's newspapers. The book focuses on the 1950s onwards, a time when the press became more personal, and gay politicians, as well as politicians involved in gay scandals, came to the forefront of media attention. The book uses case studies and socio-political analysis to develop a frame of representation which shows how a move from intolerance to tolerance to partial recognition of homosexuality has impacted the acceptability of homosexuality in 'heterosexual public space,' which then affected the representation of gay politicians in the press. What was private has now become public, pointing to the fact that gay politicians have mediated personas: their private lives, and sexualities, are lived in/presented through the media. Sex, Lies and Politics reveals insights about representation and the construction of identity through its focus on sexuality, politicians, and the media, with the changing line between the private and public as an essential concept. Sensationalism and scandal are key issues explored in the text. The representation of gay politicians in the UK press has so far been underrepresented in media and political studies. Lack of discussion is strange, considering that gay politicians have been at the forefront of the media's attention over the last 50 years. Sex, Lies and Politics provides a much needed contribution to political, media, and social history.

This book provides a much-needed analysis of the changing representation of gay politicians in UK newspapers. Focusing on the 1950s onwards, a time when the press became more personal and gay politicians/politicians involved in gay scandals came to the forefront of media attention, the text uses case studies and socio-political analysis to develop a frame of representation which shows how a move from intolerance to tolerance to partial recognition of homosexuality has impacted upon the acceptability of homosexuality in 'heterosexual public space', with this then affecting the representation of gay politicians in the press. What was private has now become public, pointing to the fact that gay politicians have mediated personas; their private lives, and sexualities, are lived in/presented through the media. The book reveals insights about representation and the construction of identity through its focus on sexuality, politicians and the media, with the changing line between the private and public an essential concept. Sensationalism and scandal are key issues in the text, with the press coverage of politicians caught up in gay scandals, as well as gay politicians, explored. The representation of gay politicians in the UK press has so far been underrepresented in media and political studies. Lack of discussion is strange, considering that gay politicians have been at the forefront of the media's attention over the last fifty years.

Though rarely life threatening, psoriasis is a common and, at its worst, tormenting disease that has a major impact on a patient's lifestyle and relationships. Progress in understanding the causes and mechanisms underlying psoriasis, together with the move towards increased community-based care, means that clinical practice is continually changing.
