The Celestial Worlds Discovered: Or Conjectures Concerning the Inhabitants, Plants and Productions of the Worlds in the Planets (1722), Huygens Christiaan
Описание: The seven microstates of Europe are remarkable not only for their size, but their persistence as well. It is a sociopolitical phenomenon that has rarely been addressed, but this book shows how it may have clues for the larger understanding of the conflicting agencies of nationalism and globalism currently seen around the world.

Описание: From humble beginnings as a `barefoot boy` in a small town in the heart of South Africa, Barnard learned to mix with presidents and prime ministers, with royality and popes, and quickly embraced the high-life of the jet-set who surrounded him. Having established the first major heart surgery program in Africa, he eventually became distracted by other interests until he was a mere shadow in his own deparment. This is the story of Chris Barnard who dared to carry out the world`s first human heart transplant in 1967.

Описание:
In this new biography of Chris Barnard we not only learn about the life of South Africa's most famous surgeon, from his Beaufort West childhood through his studies locally and abroad to his prominent marriages - and divorces - but James Styan also examines the impact of the historic heart transplant on Barnard's personal life and South African society at large, where apartheid legislation often made the difficulties of medicine even more convoluted. The role of black medical staff like Hamilton Naki is explored, as is the intense rivalry that arose between other famous heart surgeons and Barnard. How did Barnard manage to beat them all in this race of life and death? How much did his famous charisma have to do with it all? And in the light of his later years, his subsequent successes and considerable failures, what is Barnard's legacy today? Styan covers it all in this fascinating new account of a real heartbreaker.
