Your period. What is it, really? And why is it so embarrassing to
walk to the bathroom hiding a tampon in your sleeve? Comedian and
Scandinavian YouTube sensation Clara Henry has the answers to all
your burning questions about bleeding. Have you always wondered
what menstruation is, why it causes terrible cramps, or why it
makes you want to do nothing but eat chocolate and watch cute cat
videos? Have you been shocked that it's taboo to talk about
something that half the world's population goes through every
month? And above all, have you been looking for the best snarky
response to the question "Are you on your period, or what?" Whether
you're expecting your first period, have already gotten it, or know
someone close to you who's just begun the torment, this funny and
informative book will tell you everything you need to know. In a
funny, powerful, and entertaining voice, this book covers important
terms, types of sanitary protection, and the history of
menstruation and women's fight for equal access to reproductive
healthcare. And if you suddenly find yourself hankering for
chocolate or cute animals? Well. Welcome to the period club.

This revised edition of Adam Wall's 1798 guide to the formal
ceremonies of the University of Cambridge - written by Henry
Gunning (1764-1854), at the time Senior Esquire Bedell, and
published in 1828 - was intended to help 'that very numerous Class,
who are desirous of proceeding to their degrees, but are utterly at
a loss what steps to take for that purpose'. It goes through the
academic year, from Michaelmas Day to the 'Public Commencement' in
July, explains the procedure for electing or appointing the
university officers, from the Member of Parliament to the
'School-keeper and Bell-ringer', and lists the various fees
(including Stamp Duty) payable by the students before proceeding to
their degrees. Gunning expressed 'sincere acknowledgements to the
Syndics of the Press for their liberality in defraying the expenses
of this publication', testifying to close co-operation between the
Press and the University on this fascinating project.
Henry Gunning (1768 1854) was a Bedell at the University of
Cambridge for over sixty years, and in this capacity attended on
the Vice-Chancellor at official ceremonies and published the
results of votes held in the Senate House. This two-volume work,
written shortly before his death, and published posthumously in
1854, was controversial. News of its publication caused
consternation about what he might say, and senior members of the
University are noticeably absent from the subscription list.
Gunning had been active in town politics as well as university
affairs, and, though he includes amusing and perhaps embarrassing
anecdotes about Cambridge figures, he is not malicious. He makes it
clear that Cambridge was at a low point academically when he
arrived as a student, but he lived to see the beginnings of reform
in the Victorian period. Volume 1 deals with his life from 1784 to
1794, when he became a Bedell.
