Surgical Reminiscences of the Civil War (Expanded, Annotated)
THIS wonderful short treatise is not by just any professor of surgery or former army doctor. William Williams Keen was America’s first brain surgeon, was brought in to see Franklin Delano Roosevelt when he was paralyzed by polio, and worked closely with six American presidents. If you read one book about Civil War medicine, whether you are a medical professional or layperson, this is the one. Keen’s raw and compelling memories as a young field surgeon are unmatched. With case studies and the perspective of many years of practice after the war, Keen captivates you with "I was there" storytelling. Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.

The Rule of the Admirals
Jerry Bannister's The Rule of the Admirals examines governance in Newfoundland from the rule of the fishing admirals in 1699 to the establishment of representative government in 1832.

Animal Ethics and Animal Law
Animal law is a growing discipline, as is animal ethics. In this wide-ranging book, scholars from around the world address the intersections between the two. Specifically, this collection focuses on pressing moral issues and how law can protect animals from cruelty and abuse. A project of the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics, the book is edited by the Oxford Centre’s directors, Andrew Linzey and Clair Linzey, and features contributions from many of its fellows. Divided into three sections, the work explores historical perspectives and ethical–legal issues such as “personhood” and “property” before focusing on five practical case studies. The volume introduces readers to the interweaving between these subjects and should act as a spur to further interdisciplinary work.
