Ketchum, Marshall B.
Ketchum's lessons on the eye : dedicated to the "world of optometry" and especially to those who have sacrificed their time and energy to the end that the word "optometrist" may be honored by all other professions ..
Octavo in maroon polished cloth backed boards with gilt titles; 89 pages, [9] leaves of plates : b&w and red illustrations ; 24 cm Very scarce book on optometry. Self-published by this pioneer of California optometry education. Only 15 copies listed in WorldCat. || "Marshall Bidwell Ketchum, MD was born in Canada in 1856 and became a pharmacist in Canada after many years of study. Dr. Ketchum wanted to further his education, so he traveled to the United States to study medicine at the Eclectic Medical Institute in Cincinnati, Ohio. He graduated with an MD degree in 1882. He then entered private practice in Dallas, Texas. Dr. Ketchum eventually became a faculty member at Nebraskaís Lincoln Medical College teaching medicine to aspiring young doctors, eventually transitioning to conducting the Lincoln Optical College from 1896-1903. After his time at Lincoln Optical College, Dr. Ketchum moved to Los Angeles and started the Los Angeles School of Ophthalmology and Optometry in March 1904. This was an exciting time for the profession of optometry, as it was just beginning to develop into a distinct profession separate from general medicine. For many years, Dr. Ketchum worked tirelessly to develop the program and merge several schools into the college, which became non-profit in 1938. Dr. Ketchum served as president of the college until 1920. Dr. Ketchum was an esteemed member of the medical community during his time, and was an early leader of the profession of optometry. He strived to create a college with the highest possible quality of education and felt that practitioners of optometry had a deep responsibility to the community and individual patientís visual needs.[2] Dr. Ketchum was among the early pioneers of optometry, advocating the use of the retinoscope to determine refractive status of the eye.[1] He is well known for his book, ìKetchumís Lessons on the Eyeî, published in 1920, that details not only anatomy of the eye, but details on the medical practice of early optometry." óWikipedia. || Human Eye.

Women's health : complexities and differences
White dj, orange cloth quarto; xix, 689 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Uncommon in cloth (hardcover). Contents: I. What is women's health? Social, biomedical, and feminist models of women's health / Pattern and puzzles : the distribution of health and illness among women in the United States / What we share and how we differ. What are the dynamics of differences? / The last sisters : health issues of women with disabilities / Creating women's health : health practices, working and living conditions, and medical care. Women, personal health behavior, and health promotion / The ergonomics of women's work / "Less than animals?" : the health of women workers in garment manufacture, agriculture, and electronics assembly / Access, cost, and quality of medical care : where are we heading? / A note from Louise : understanding women's health in Appalachia / Culture and complexities.

African American women's health : the effects of disease and chronic life stressors / Women, power, and mental health / Who cares? : women as informal and formal caregivers / Older women : income, retirement, and health / Power and social control. Responses to stigma and marginality : the health of lesbians, imprisoned women, and women with HIV / "You can be safer, but--" : different women, many violences. Women's lived experiences of abuse / The battered women's movement ; Rape / A survivor speaks about the Victim Input Program / Anti-lesbian violence / Sexual harassment / The ongoing politics of contraception : Norplant and other emerging technologies / Challenges and choices for the twenty-first century. Research to improve women's health : an agenda for equity / Strengths and strongholds in women's health research / Conversing with diversity : implications for social research / Challenging purely biomedical definitions of women's health, Women's Health: Complexities and Differences draws attention to social, cultural, and behavioral elements crucial to a broader understanding of the issues. The contributors to this volume raise important questions about the directions currently being taken to improve women's health in the United States: Is women's health merely the absence of disease? What have been the consequences of promoting narrow biomedical models of health? What do the pervasive patterns and puzzles in the distribution of disease, illness, and death among different groups of women tell us about the sources of ill health? How well do national agendas address all women's health care priorities? What are the implications for social action? Particular attention is paid in this collection of essays to how race, class, gender, and culture shape and in turn are shaped by treatment options and health care for certain subpopulations among Native American, Latina, Asian American, and African American women. Discussions of reproductive health, mental health, violence, and the treatment of stigmatized women raise perplexing issues about choice, chance, and social change.
