Maine nurses have served tirelessly as caregivers and partners in healing at home and abroad, from hospitals to battlefields. The Division of Public Health Nursing and Child Hygiene was established in 1920 to combat high rates of infant mortality in Washington and Aroostook Counties. During the Vietnam War, Maine nurses helped build the Twelfth Evacuation Hospital at Cu Chi and bravely assisted surgeries in the midst of fighting. In the early 1980s, nurse disease prevention educators in Portland rose to the challenge of combating the growing AIDS epidemic. Through historical anecdotes and fascinating oral histories, discover the remarkable sacrifices and achievements of Maine's nurses.

Excerpt from The Spirit Lamp, 1892-1893 An efficient staff has been engaged, and the conduct of the Spirit Lamp has been distributed in four departments, viz., (1) Mild Criticism, (2) Really Sensible Articles, (3) Philosophy, (4) Other Light Literature. The last department, which is infinitely the most important, has been entrusted to a number of gentlemen of varied and incalculable ability. Every shade of opinion will be represented, and it is safe to say that Realism, Idealism, Impressionism, and the Dissective method, will find worthy exposition in our columns. In these days of sharp definition and cut and dried analysis the Editor is sure to be asked what vein of humour exactly he proposes to indulge. Will it be the broad, the subtle, the old, the new, the obvious, the dry, or the cynical? It is rather early to give a decided answer; but there can be no harm in saying that the Editor is personally inclined to see What can be made of the unconscious humour of Shake speare's Comedies and the Book of Common Prayer: as sources of laughter they appear to be still fairly fresh. It is hoped that the Spirit Lamp will be able to draw a clear line of demarcation between wit and vulgarity; but no doubt a certain number of really funny jokes will be set apart for those who cannot see the other sort.

"The impact of technology on society is clear and unmistakeable. The influence of society on technology is more subtle. The 13 essays in this book have been written by a diverse group of scholars united by a common interest in creating a new field - the sociology of technology. They draw on a wide array of case studies - from cooking stoves to missile systems, from 15th-century Portugal to today's Al labs - to outline an original research program based on a synthesis of ideas from the social studies of science and the history of technology. Together they affirm the need for a study of technology that gives equal weight to technical, social, economic, and political questions"--Back cover.

A Bibliography of McClelland and Stewart Ltd. Imprints, 1909-1985 contains bibliographic records of all books and other materials published by McClelland and Stewart publishing company from 1909, when the first books were published, to 1985, when Jack McClelland ceased to be associated with the company. Carl Spadoni and Judith Donnelly have included all manner of books in this compilation: fiction, poetry, drama, biography, history, and other non-fiction, as well as textbooks at all levels. A good portion of the company's books in the pre-World War II period were imported from the United States and England; the compilers have therefore listed not only Canadian books, but also works by non-Canadian writers in Canadian issues.
