Venepuncture and Cannulation

The time in this country's history when people moved from working on farms to working in factories is known as the Industrial Revolution. It's impossible to name the precise day the revolution began because it occurred as the result of changes that put an end to agriculture as the most common way of life in the United States, ultimately leading to an improvement in the quality of life both at home and at work. This book details how the revolution first took root in England and spread to the United States, prompting the development of factories, railroads, and assembly lines. The development of the clock industry provides an interesting illustration of how the revolution changed people's lives. No longer were they guided by the amount of daylight available to perform their farming duties. Instead, they had to concern themselves with the hour at which they were required to be at work in the factories. The author includes a discussion of the positive and negative effects of the Revolution.

AS Level Law

Undergoing an abusive relationship with her minister husband, Mary suffered through lies, manipulation, infidelity, drug addiction, financial insecurity, abandonment, and the inability to be a spiritual leader. Mary wears her heart on her sleeve as she reminisces of her years as an impressionable girl, falling in love with a young man from her church to a single mother raising her three children with family members and in the projects, doing everything in her strength to provide for them. Throughout it all, God kept her from having a nervous breakdown. He stopped a stroke, attempted suicide, and a major heart attack from taking her out. Her utmost desire to anyone planning to get married is to read her entire story, so they can avoid the unnecessary pain she underwent. For those already in an arduous marriage, Mary is a living testament to the fact that God delivers and protects. Although the deliverance may not come the way one envisions it, God will bring the person out to victory. Mary tells those in the same place she was to "try to do good even when you do not want to. After you have gone through the storm of a bad marriage, you will have peace. Never cease to love, to pray, fast, and have faith, knowing God cares about you and will never leave your side."

The tradition of storytelling and folklore reaches deeply into the American notion of national identity, and among the more prominent emblems of American culture stands the cowboy. Despite the attempts to modernize the cowboy of our frontier past, today's mounted horsemen have learned how to adapt to a rapidly changing world—while tenaciously holding on to their heritage. Tall tales and yarns make up a great amount of the folklore of this literary tradition, yet woven throughout such stories stir an American mixture of humor, wisdom, and philosophy. In Horsing Around, Clayton, Davis, and Collins draw upon the vast amount of anecdotes portraying the lighter side of working on the range. The collected vignettes in Horsing Around will provide the collector of Texana greater accessibility to stories that are often told only at public performances.

Horsing Around

Originally published in 1925, this book embodies the results of research on red-green colour-blind subjects, supplemented by brief accounts of blue-yellow, total, and acquired colour-blindness to complete the description of the different forms of the defect. After a historical survey of previous work by such men as Dalton, Helmholtz, Rayleigh, Edridge-Green and others, the author deals with the most important theories of colour-blindness, and with a description of the tests and a discussion of their results.

Donald Collins

In this collaborative memoir, a parent and a transgender son recount wrestling with their differences as Donald Collins undertook medical-treatment options to better align his body with his gender identity. As a parent, Mary Collins didn't agree with her trans son's decision to physically alter his body, although she supported his right to realize himself as a person. Raw and uncensored, each explains her or his emotional mindset at the time- Mary felt she had lost a daughter; Donald activated his "authentic self." Both battled to assert their rights. A powerful memoir and resource, At the Broken Placesoffers a road map for families in transition.
