Product Description
Roger Cotes (1682-1716) was the first Plumian Professor of Astronomy and Experimental Philosophy, at Trinity College, Cambridge. One of the most distinguished, and certainly one of the most ardent, of the early Newtonians he did important work in mathematics and astronomy and edited the second edition of Newton's Principia. Cotes died young and published only one paper, the Logometria, during his lifetime; a translation of this paper is given in the Appendix. Most of Cotes's papers were published posthumously in Latin in Harmonia Mensurarum in 1722. Dr Gowing discusses Cotes' work in some detail but has written the work in such a way that the more technical aspects of the mathematics can be omitted at first reading whilst still giving a clear idea of Cotes' achievement. Cotes' work was significant but his full potential was unrealised; in Newton's reputed words: 'If he had lived, we might have known something.' ... Read more

Product Description
The coverage of violence is one of the most problematic features of journalistic practice -the area most frequently criticized by the public as well as those on the receiving end of that coverage. Particularly in communities hit by such disasters as the Columbine High School shooting and the Oklahoma City bombing, there is little tolerance for insensitive "reporting as usual."Amid such escalating criticism of the media´s coverage of violence, Covering Violence gives journalists a better understanding of what is happening "on the scene" of a violent event. Discussing such topics as rape and the ethics of interviewing children, and using the Oklahoma City bombing as a case study, the book relates journalistic practices to the rapidly expanding body of literature on trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, and secondary traumatic stress, and surveys current medical and political debates concerning victims´ rights. Covering Violence is the first comprehensive guide for students and working journalists on how to deal with victims and their families with sensitivity and respect, including where the reporter can go safely and legally, how to obtain the most useful information, and how to understand and respect the needs and actions of emergency workers and public-safety agencies. The book also presents innovative ways of interviewing and photographing victims and also helps journalists deal with the effects in their own lives of frequent exposure to trauma. Profiles of journalists whose work exemplifies responsible and sensitive coverage of tragic events, including Rick Bragg, Scott North, Jeff Gradney, Lynn Dobson, and Debra McKinney, demonstrate that compassionate reporting need not preclude "getting the story." ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Covering Violence
For those studying contagion theory and relationships, the reporting of violence, and the symbiotic relationships between the media and violence, this is a must have addition to you library.

5-0 out of 5 stars Long on ideas
Why did it take me eight months to finish a book that is such an easy read? Any journalism student could breeze through Covering Violence in a day or so. Yet on many days I found myself reading a page -- or less -- and then setting the book aside. I thought that I was remiss until by chance I talked to two other people who were also reading this book at the same time -- and discovered that they were also plodding through it at a snail's pace. Why? On reflection, I realized that I had been stopping to think. Each paragraph prompted a flood of ideas that demanded contemplation. It forced me to ponder the choices that journalists must make, how their news gathering practises and ensuing coverage affects the people whom they cover -- and how covering grisly stories affects journalists themselves. Read-pause-think: It was reassuring to learn that I was not alone in having the book produce this response in me. I now know what took me so long. I still marvel that it took so long for reporters, as a group, to examine the obvious, lingering and sometimes profound impact of their craft upon individuals, and formulate a code of practise. Covering Violence is an excellent way to start. It will interest seasoned journalists and should be required reading for all journalism students. ... Read more

Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.

The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.
