Household Tips: Over 300 Useful and Valuable Home Hints
by A L FowlerFirst published in 1916, A L Fowler's book of household tips is an indispensable guide to all those 'Kim and Aggy' moments - from cleaning a dirty clothesline and removing paint from window panes, to obliterating a whole host of stains, from rust to indelible ink, to blood and mildew. This delightful little volume also reveals the best way to rid yourself of those annoying household pests, including ants, beetles and flies; how to remove odours from your hands; and advises on the use of natural products to clean floors, windows and cooking utensils. Fowler also shows the twentieth-century housewife how to perform miracles in the kitchen, with tips on making pastry extra flaky, the quickest way to peel carrots and how to remove burns from a cake.
The Maker of Modern Japan: The Life of Tokugawa Ieyasu (Routledge Library Editions: Japan)
by A L SadlerTokugawa Ieyasu founded a dynasty of rulers, organized a system of government and set in train the re-orientation of the religion of Japan so that he would take the premier place in it. Calm, capable and entirely fearless, Ieyasu deliberately brought the opposition to a head and crushed in a decisive battle, after which he made himself Shogun, despite not being from the Minamoto clan. He organized the Japanese legal and educational systems and encouraged trade with Europe (playing off the Protestant powers of Holland and England against Catholic Spain and Portugal). This book remains one of the few volumes on Tokugawa Ieyasu which draws on more material from Japanese sources than quotations from the European documents from his era and is therefore much more accurate and thorough in its examination of the life and legacy of one of the greatest Shoguns.
Total Abstinence Cookery: Being a Collection of Receipts for Cooking, from Which All Intoxicating Liquids Are Excluded
by A LadyPublished in 1841 in Philadelphia, the Total Abstinence Cookery is an appealing example of a mid-19th century temperance cookbook. During this period of growth in the American middle class, the importance of abstinence from alcohol emerged from the sober, moral beliefs of the new social class. Several cookbooks such as Total Abstinence Cookery were published as part of the movement. As stated in the preface by the author, merely known as &“A Lady,&” &“[t]he error of mixing intoxicating liquors in almost every article of cookery, has too long been countenanced by those who have the charge of families and every friend of temperance must most sincerely deplore the fact.&” As a guide for temperance, Total Abstinence Cookery provides alcohol-free recipes such as Beef-steak Broiled, Honey Cake, Raspberry Cream, Ham Dumplings, Macaroons, Peach Pot-Pie, and Sweet Breads. While the temperance movement might not be prevalent today, Total Abstinence Cookery is still significant within the historical context of its time period, and it provides an authentic example of a contemporary social trend reflected in a cookbook. This edition of Total Abstinence Cookery was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876.

Observational Studies in a Learning Health System
by Institute of Medicine Joe Alper Roundtable on Value and Science-Driven Health Care Claudia Grossmann A Learning Health System ActivityClinical research strains to keep up with the rapid and iterative evolution of medical interventions, clinical practice innovation, and the increasing demand for information on the clinical effectiveness of these advancements. In response to the growing availability of archived and real-time digital health data and the opportunities this data provides for research, as well as the increasing number of studies using prospectively collected clinical data, the Institute of Medicine\'s Roundtable on Value & Science-Driven Health Care convened a workshop on Observational Studies in a Learning Health System. Participants, including experts from a wide range of disciplines - clinical researchers, statisticians, biostatisticians, epidemiologists, health care informaticians, health care analytics, research funders, health products industry, clinicians, payers, and regulators - explored leading edge approaches to observational studies, charted a course for the use of the growing health data utility, and identified opportunities to advance progress. Workshop speakers and individual participants strove to identify stakeholder needs and barriers to the broader application of observational studies. Observational Studies in a Learning Health Systemis the summary of the workshop. This report explores the role of observational studies in the generation of evidence to guide clinical and health policy decisions. The report discusses concepts of rigorous observational study design and analysis, emerging statistical methods, and opportunities and challenges of observational studies to complement evidence from experimental methods, treatment heterogeneity, and effectiveness estimates tailored toward individual patients.
