Eclectic Medicine And Other Writings of Alexander Wilder
Wilder is best known for his philosophic writings and as Editor of H. P. Blavatsky's "Isis Unveiled," but he was also one of the best known Physicians of his time, having been an instructor in Medicine and Psychology at three colleges, Editor of at least 3 Medical Journals, and author of the 900 pp. "History of Medicine." He'd be regarded as an Holistic practitioner today, believing that medicine must regard the whole of human nature and not just the body. This volume contains 35 articles of Wilder's related to the holistic practice of medicine and psychology and the balance of articles including a long pamphlet on Neoplatonism and Alchemy, historical biographies, an Addendum of biographical material, and Index.
Missionaries, Rebellion and Proto-Nationalism
The Rev. James Long was one of the most remarkable Protestant missionaries working in India in the nineteenth century. Sent to Calcutta at the age of 22 in 1840, he devoted his life to representing what he passionately believed were the best interests of the forgotten poor and oppressed among the Bengali population. Long was a central figure in the indigo planting controversy of 1861 and suffered imprisonment as a result. His memory is revered even today in modern India, where his contribution to the development of Bengali vernacular education, literature, history, and sociology is highly regarded. Dr Oddie has produced the first full-length biography of Rev Long, examining his work and activities in the context of his own background, philosophy and motivation as well as the political and cultural climate of the day. This book will add significantly to our knowledge of social movements in nineteenth century India and the colonial responses to them.
