The Fielding H. Garrison Lecture: "Break-Bone" Fever in Philadelphia, 1780: Reflections on the History of Disease.
In the Autumn of 1780 an epidemic hit the city of Philadelphia. The symptoms of the disease resembled those of present day dengue fever, and subsequent observers argued that the disease was in fact dengue. But was it? The question forces us to confront the challenges of retrospective epidemiology and how we examine the history of a disease. This paper examines the 1780 epidemic from two perspec...
متن کاملThomas H. Huxley and religion and immortality; a letter from T. Lauder Brunton to Fielding H. Garrison.
TiE Victorian era secured for man the revolutionary concepts of geological time and natural selection and may well have been the last epoch in which the world of science was seriously contested by the principles of theology, if not the ethics of religion. Not since the time of Galileo was there a greater need for resolution and compromise between these opposing forces. Thomas Henry Huxley clear...
متن کاملH . C . Schumacher in 1821
Key words galaxies: magnetic fields – magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) – turbulence We summarize the current state of the long term discussion about the saturation mechanisms associated with rapid growth of small-scale magnetic field, that operate in large-scale galactic dynamos, and related problems with magnetic helicity conservation. Our general conclusion is that, taking into account magnetic hel...
متن کاملOutbreak of Epidemic Cholera in the Garrison and District of Kohat, 1867
Cholera broke out at Peshawur about the middle of May, and the utmost precautions to prevent its advent that a strict quarantine could enforce were at oneo adopted. Traffic through the Kohat pass was discouraged as much as possible, and quarantine posts weie established at Fort Garnet, (the Kohat mouth) and on the other minor passes in the hills through which travellers from Peshawur could pene...
متن کاملH . C . Schumacher in 1821
Key words instabilities – magnetic fields – magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) – turbulence In this study we provide the first numerical demonstration of the effects of turbulence on the mean Lorentz force and the resulting formation of large-scale magnetic structures. Using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) of forced turbulence we show that an imposed mean magnetic field leads to a ...
