Medical Profession of Philadelphia, New York, and Boston, The
PROCEEDINGS IN BEHALF OF THE MORTON TESTIMONIAL
Boston: George C. Rand & Avery 1861. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. The original 1861 publication of the testimonial of "The Medical Profession of Philadelphia New York and Boston rebound in black cloth with gilt-lettered and slightly chipped spine label 56pp. Text clean pages evenly toned. The last pages are in effect forms requesting monies for Dr. Morton and his family. William T. G. Morton 1819-1868 was a surgeon dentist in Hartford Connecticut who claimed to be the first person to perform surgical anethesia on a patient's tumor in 1846. "Morton immediately patented ether hoping to retain its use exclusively for himself. Later he made repeated appeals to the American Congress for financial recompense for his 'invention'. Morton's instructor the chemist and geologist Charles Thomas Jackson said it was he who had made the discovery and had suggested that Morton should try it out. Horace Wells the dentist from Hartford Connecticut put forward his well-substantiated claim to have produced anaesthesia two years earlier with nitrous oxide. It is sad that such an epoch-making event should have been followed by 20 years of acrimony vituperation and litigation between three contestants each claiming to have originated anaesthesia." Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine May 2020 pp 226-227. George C. Rand & Avery hardcover

Mezer, Robert R Massachusetts psychiatrist who examined Albert DeSalvo ("The Boston Strangler"), obtaining his confession
TWO TYPED LETTERS TO PSYCHIATRIST AND CRIMINOLOGIST DR. ARTHUR N. FOXE SIGNED BY PSYCHIATRIST ROBERT R. MEZER.
Boston MA: August 26 and Septembeer 27 1957. 1957. Very good. - Both letters are typed on the cream-colored letterhead 11 inches high by 8-1/2 inches wide of "The Commonwealth of Massachusetts / Department of Mental Heath / Division of Legal Medicine". The August letter fills one side of the letterhead and is signed "Robert R. Mezer M.D" with his typed title "Clinical Director / Parole Clinic and Norfolk Treatment Center". The September letter fills one side of the letterhead with 2 paragraphs on a follow-up sheet and is signed "Robert R. Mezer M.D." without the typed title. The top corners of both letters are lightly creased with the right corners slightly darkened and both are folded twice for mailing. Together with the September mailing envelope. Very good. <p>Two splendidly detailed and discursive letters from one psychiatrist to another. Dr. Mezer writes to Dr. Foxe in August 1957 after reading Foxe's book "Studies in Criminology". Mezer explains that the Division of Legal Medicine offering psychiatric services to prisoners and parolees has only recently been established and he asks many questions about Foxe's experience of treating patients in a prison setting. He plans also to read Foxe's book "Crime and Sexual Development".<p>Mezer writes his second letter in September 1957 after Foxe has sent him copies of "Crime and Sexual Development" and "The Life and Death Instincts". He muses at length about Foxe's ideas: "I found myself wondering if some of the conclusions were on the basis of the associations of your patients or on the basis of your own interpretations and formulations. For example why is robbery with a gun late anal rather than phallic that is might not the gun be a phallic symbol. Another example might be seeing the car as a female symbol instead of as symbolic of intercourse. This is not said in any critical light as our limited case material to date tends to confirm the primitive pre-genitality you describe."<p>Mezer author of "Dynamic Psychiatry in Simple Terms" 1960 examined Albert DeSalvo "The Boston Strangler" at the request of F. Lee Bailey. Mezer shocked the courtroom by reporting. "DeSalvo told me he was the strangler.He told me he strangled 13 women.and he went into details of some of them telling me some of the most intimate acts he committed."<p>A psychiatrist and criminologist Dr. Foxe was also an avid collector of skating books and even published a skating bibliography. Boston, MA: August 26 and Septembeer 27, 1957. unknown

Prima edizione First Edition. <em>Per molti anni <strong>Diana Michener</strong> ha desiderato fotografare l'orizzonte ma esitava: come catturare questa caratteristica del paesaggio che è"; stranamente sfuggente una linea che segna il punto in cui terra e cielo sembrano incontrarsi Poi due anni fa Michener ha preso in mano una macchina fotografica analogica 8 × 10 e si è sentita attratta dal paesaggio fuori Walla Walla Washington dove trascorre le sue estati. Così è" iniziato il suo impegno con l'orizzonte che ha seguito in ambienti prevalentemente desertici e semi-aridi nel Big Bend National Park in Texas nelle alture del Golan in Israele nelle Bardenas Reales in Spagna e oltre. Michener intuisce l'orizzonte in uno stato di trance cogliendone i molteplici aspetti: come una linea elegante tracciata dal sole al tramonto che si dissolve nella foschia quasi oscurata da maestosi massi o semplicemente sottintesa in un'immagine ravvicinata di sedimenti rocciosi simili a onde.<br /><br />Guarda un video sull'Artista su Youtube:</em> <em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watchv=RRAzDd2UjcU">https://www.youtube.com/watchv=RRAzDd2UjcU</a></em> Steidl, hardcover

MIRALAY AHMET BEY ZADE MEHMET OSMAN, (1878-1940?).
[FIRST SEPARATE TRAVEL ACCOUNT OF AUSTRALIA BY A TURKISH TRAVELLER] Avusturalya seyahati. [i.e. Voyage to Australia]. Preface by Tahsin Demiray.
Very Good Turkish Original wrappers. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Turkish with Latin letters. 64 p., 1 portrait, 2 unnumbered b/w plates. First and only edition of this rare and early first and only separate travel account to Australia by a Turkish traveler in Turkish literature. Mehmet Osman Bey, (1878-1940?), was a son of Miralay Ahmed Bey, and the grandson of Emin Pasha who was the head doctor of Sultan Murat V. Mehmet Osman Bey, who circumnavigated the world in 1910, continued his journey across India, Sumatra, Java, Malaga, the Archipelago, Japan and China until the fourth month of the World War I. After arriving in Australia, he wrote his travel notes and later on was taken as a civilian prisoner by the British Army in Australia and was sent first to India and from there to Egypt. According to Demiray's preface, he was blind after returning to Turkey. This book includes two plates showing farmhouses in Australia. He described in his book Australia's educational, farming and medical systems as well as the topography of the land, the customs and rituals of the natives, their traditions of hunting, and the largely indigenous population in Queensland and the native camps outside Sydney. One of the purposes of publishing this book in the early Republican Turkey period was to examine the welfare level and systems in other countries in accordance with the conjuncture of the period. Only two copies in OCLC: 949418134 (Bogaziçi University Library & National Library of Australia).
