George Tetlow and Mark and Jill Pearse
Biographies and art works of George Tetlow and Mark and Jill PearseGEORGE TETLOW left the grey chill of Manchester in 1959 and migrated to Australia aged twenty-four. The amateur artist endured a warm Aussie welcome in a Mount Isa copper smelter, after which he worked for three years at Woomera. But people noted his artistic talent, and encouraged him to take it seriously. He went to the South Australian School of Art as a mature-age student, worked as an illustrator for Rigby publishers, then returned to the art school as a lecturer for twenty years, becoming loved as a teacher and well-known for his figurative drawing. In his fifties he trekked in the Himalaya for forty-five days -- therea...
Adelaide, updated paperback edition
Any place you have experienced first-hand is a museum of memory, one whose exhibits conjure up, in widening ripples of association, a whole city: a red paddle-boat, a photograph of three children on a hot day, a marble Venus fetchingly half-naked in the shade. Kerryn Goldsworthy's acclaimed Adelaide is a museum of sorts, a personal guide to the city through a collection of objects, iconic and everyday. Goldsworthy navigates her southern home, discovering its identifying curios and passing them to the reader to touch, inspect and marvel at. These objects explore the beautiful, commonplace, dark and contradictory history of Adelaide: the heat, the wine, the weirdness, the progressive politics ...
Opioid Peptides and Blood Pressure Control
This book provides current knowledge on the influence of endogenous opioid peptides on blood pressure regulation. In view of the rapid increase in knowledge in the field, it is important that scientists in blood pressure research as well as specialist clinicians have access to such a comprehensive survey. The book is divided into sections on neuroanatomy, where both the central and peripheral nervous systems are considered; on physiology and pharmacology, whereby experiments with intact animals as well as with histologic preparations are described; and on clinical questions, where examinations of normotensive and hypertensive patients as well as experiments on the influence of various drugs are emphasized. The contributions are presented in the form of reviews and single articles which allow the reader to obtain a clear and detailed survey of a range of highly topical subjects.

A History of Endocrinology
o history of endocrinology can be written without reference N to Sir Humphry Davy Rolleston, whose monumental study of the subject appeared in 1936 under the modest subtitle: The Endocrine Organs in Health and Disease with an Historical Review. It was based on the author's Fitzpatrick Lectures at the Royal College of Physicians of London in 1933 and 1934. The lectureship, which dates from 1901, is devoted to the History of Medicine. Rolleston's work as regards scholarship and delivery cannot be surpassed and will remain the solid basis for any further study. It is of interest to note that Rolleston gave the Fitzpatrick Lectures when he was 71 years of age and had his book published when he w...
