DOUGLAS (Andrew)
Observations on an Extraordinary Case of Ruptured Uterus.
First edition, 74pp., recent quarter calf, marbled boards, red morocco title label lettered in gilt to spine. Andrew Douglas (1735/6?1806), physician and man-midwife, was born in Teviotdale, Roxburghshire, and educated at the University of Edinburgh. He began work as a surgeon in the navy in 1756, and later practised at Deal before returning to Edinburgh in 1775 where he graduated MD. He settled in London with the intention of practising midwifery, and was for several years physician to the Charity for Delivering Poor Married Women at their Own Houses.?(ODNB). This pamphlet deals with a case where "he succeeded in the delivery of a child from the cavity of the abdomen, and the woman recovered; from whence he infers, that those accidents, which admit the child to escape through a rupture of the uterus, are not necessarily fatal, and that the delivery is to be effected, without having recourse to the caesarean operation, with more ease than has been imagined."?Goldson, An Extraordinary Case. Wellcome II, p. 481.

TIGER'S HEART
Tallahassee FL U.S.A.: Naiad Press Tallahassee: FL 1992 1992. 1st ed. PBO large oversize trade pbk. Set in Victoria British Columbia. "In her fourth adventure Canadian lesbian PI Caitlin Reece catches up with a couple of her high-school classmates Jonna Rowan and Kirk Ratliffe. Jonna calls and begs Caitlin to meet her saying she fears for her life. But Caitlin is met not by Jonna but by her 10-year-old daughter Jory who explains that Kirk her father murdered her mother in a motel room. Jory wants Caitlin to find and kill Kirk. The police however say that Jonna's body is not at the motel and that Jory's account has ``a lot of inconsistencies.'' Jory sticks resolutely to her story but then she also claims that she once saw a UFO. A row of scars on Jory's back together with some digging into the recent past indicate to Caitlin that neither Kirk nor Jonna qualifies as a model parent. With the help of Gray Ng a psychic friend Francis the Ferret a computer database-cracker and Lester a photographer and general helper she makes real headway on the case--until Jory herself disappears. Neither Douglas's The Daughters of Artemis political message nor her dip into spiritualism blunts the intensity of this effective mystery as Caitlin probes the lives of former acquaintances and chases through a rugged British Columbian winter."--PW. 1st Edition. Trade Paperback. Fine/No Jacket. Book. Naiad Press Tallahassee: FL 1992 Paperback

Hanging By a Thread : Afghan Womens Rights and Security Threats [Hardcover]
ABOUT THE BOOK:- More than a decade after the Taliban were ousted from power, Afghans' rights and security are at a crossroad, and women's rights hang by a thread. Two former political authorities offer an update on the opportunities—and dangers—facing the international community as Operation Enduring Freedom winds down. Dr. Jalal, a former Minister in the Karzai government, asks the important questions and delivers informed insights on the history of women's struggle in Afghanistan and the dangers posed by the ongoing negotiations with the Taliban.
