An unsung heroine of the Crimean War The flickering light that emanated from Florence Nightingale's lamp penetrated more darkness than she or anyone else of her time will have imagined. It illuminated the appalling deficiencies in the care of wounded and sick British servicemen on campaign during the Victorian era and it propelled 'the lady with the lamp' to well deserved fame in her own time and ever afterwards. It is therefore unfortunate that this same light blinded the public consciousness to many other extraordinary people who also worked tirelessly ...

As result they clung tenaciously to that most important of new rights -- the right to move. At Freedom's Edge is William Cohen's comprehensive history of black mobility fro the Civil War to World War I. Cohen treats mobility as a central component of black freedom, crucial in the emergence of a free labor system, and equally crucial as an obstacle ...

The Muscle Source of Life talks about the significant role of our muscular thoracic diaphragm. Since the diaphragm is a muscle (skeletal muscle), its function is limited to the contraction (shortening), and relaxation (lengthening) of its muscle fibers, occurring under somatic (voluntary) and autonomic (involuntary) control. Yet the effects on the body from this simple function allow for the sustaining of the existence of life and function. The combination of the voluntary and the involuntary influence on the function of the diaphragm helps to maintain a ...
