Excerpt from Extracts From the Papers of Thomas Woodcock (Ob. 1695)The stories which follow were transcribed by Dr. John Hall, of Kipping, Thornton, near Bradford, Yorkshire, from the papers of the Rev. Thomas Woodcock, who had been ejected in 1662 from the living of St. Andrew Undershaft, London. Both Woodcock and Hall were men of some mark in the history of Nonconformity.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From the dustjacket: "The robe-making business of Joseph Webb Ede, who married Rosanna Ravenscroft of the wig-making family in 1871, can be traced back to the seventeenth century. Today, Ede and Ravenscroft is the foremost supplier of wigs, robes and gowns to the legal profession, as well as supplying state robes, academic gowns and other clothing. This account puts wigs in their historical context and traces the development of the robes and gowns worn by judges and barristers, showing how they have continued unaltered in essentials for over 600 years -- a symbol of the continuity of the world's principal legal system. While the wearing of wigs lends to the administration of justice an impersonal decorum, the gowns and robes emphasise the formal gravity and dignity of justice -- as important today as in medieval times."

Fluid Physiology: A Handbook for Anaesthesia and Critical Care Practice

<p>This book is essential reading for medical or veterinary practitioners who need to understand the new fluid physiology and to apply it to the safe care of patients. The Starling principle is one of medicines most important concepts and originates from Ernest Starlings laboratory research 120 years ago. However, inappropriate fluid therapy is now recognised as harming and even killing thousands of patients every year. In 2004, a landmark study was published which confirmed the hypotheses put forward by Sheldon Weinbaum and Charles Michel, among other physiologists, that, in most tissues and in most situations, capillaries filter fluid to the interstitium, but do not reabsorb it. This book draws together for the first time the evolving science of the steady-state Starling principle and the clinical evidence that reveals its applicability to safer patient care. It is a thorough re-appraisal of the basics of fluid therapy. The mantra of colloid boluses for plasma volume resuscitation and colloid-free isotonic salt solution for extracellular fluid volume does not explain observations from blinded clinical trials, and the expectation of benefit for resuscitation with colloids, particularly in respect of oedema, has not materialised. Now that there is consensus that colloid volume therapy should not be used in critically-ill patients, there is a pressing need for a new paradigm for fluid therapy. This book proposes an improved paradigm that takes into consideration the Starling principle, which has been neglected by clinicians and revised by physiologists in recent years. It retires the view of colloids as preferred plasma substitutes, and focuses instead on the central volume of distribution of an infused fluid, its rate of distribution to a peripheral volume, and its rate of excretion. In short, it emphasises volume kinetics.</p>
