The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and
practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the
extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases,
their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology,
agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even
cookbooks, are all contained here.++++The below data was compiled

This is a major, definitive, landmark study of the young volcanoes
of eastern Australia and parts of New Zealand. It deals with the
rock types and origin of the volcanoes as well as the inclusions of
the upper mantle and lower-crustal rocks found in the volcanic
deposits. Fifty-nine authors contribute a wide range of chapters
dealing with the significance of the volcanoes, the insights the
area offers about the nature and origin of the earth's crust and
the mantle beneath, and the geological evolution of eastern
Australia and New Zealand over the last 70-80 million years. This
will be an important reference book for geoscientists in general,
but particularly to those involved in the fields of volcanology,
geology, goechemistry, geophysics and tectonics.
