Kim D Rainsford, G.P. Velo
R2,487 Discovery Miles 24 870 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book brings together physicians, scientists and those concerned with the production and use of anti-inflammatory drugs to discuss basic issues affecting all aspects of side-effects, including their detection and treatment. The chapters cover a wide variety of topics including the epidemiology, clinical and experimental aspects of side-effects in the GI tract, liver, kidney, cartilage, bone and skin as well as the problems associated with the newer range of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs such as methotrexate and cyclosporin. This book should be of interest to all those who develop and use anti-inflammatory analgesic drugs, from basic scientists to clinicians. It contains papers presented at the Third International meeting on "Side-Effects of Anti-inflammatory and Analgesic Drugs" held in Verona, Italy, 8-11 May 1991.

Literature, Identity and the English Channel - Narrow Seas Expanded (Hardcover): D. Rainsford Literature, Identity and the English Channel - Narrow Seas Expanded (Hardcover)
D. Rainsford
R2,764 Discovery Miles 27 640 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book concerns the significance of the English Channel in British and French literature from the 1780s onwards: a timely subject given the intense debates in progress about the actual and desired relationships between Britain and mainland Europe. The book addresses contemporary authors who use the Channel as a focus for cultural comment, comparing their approaches to those of earlier writers, from Charlotte Smith and Chateaubriand through Hugo and Dickens to historians and travel writers of the 1950s and 1980s.

Authorship, Ethics and the Reader - Blake, Dickens, Joyce (Hardcover): D. Rainsford Authorship, Ethics and the Reader - Blake, Dickens, Joyce (Hardcover)
D. Rainsford
R2,796 Discovery Miles 27 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Dominic Rainsford examines ways in which literary texts may seem to comment on their authors' ethical status. Its argument develops through readings of Blake, Dickens, and Joyce, three authors who find especially vivid ways of casting doubt on their own moral authority, at the same time as they expose wider social ills. The book combines its interest in ethics with post-structuralist scepticism, and thus develops a type of radical humanism with applications far beyond the three authors immediately discussed.
