This article from The Edinburgh Annual Register in 1811 sheds light on the origins of this linguistic hybrid. During the Scottish Enlightenment, writers like David Hume aimed to eliminate Scotti…cisms from their work to make it more accessible to wider European readers. This reflects the tension between preserving cultural identity and achieving wider recognition. The first edition of this disbound work provides an authentic glimpse into the historical efforts to bridge the gap between Scottish and English language use.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the theory of species through the lens of Darwin's concept of natural selection. It questions the idea of species as a static entity, examining how nature constantly operates to change and adapt organisms. The author argues that this process of natural selection has…led to the diversity of life on Earth, from the smallest microbes to humans. Through a discussion of the fossil record, the geographical distribution of species, and the role of sexual selection, the book challenges traditional views of species and their origins. It also delves into the broader implications of Darwin's theory, including its impact on our understanding of human evolution and the nature of life itself. This book offers a comprehensive examination of the theory of natural selection, providing a historical and scientific context for one of the most important ideas in modern biology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

The August letter fills one side of the letterhead and is signed "Robert R. Mezer, M.D" with his typed title "Clini…cal Director / Parole Clinic and Norfolk Treatment Center". The September letter fills one side of the letterhead with 2 paragraphs on a follow-up sheet and is signed "Robert R. Mezer, M.D." without the typed title. The top corners of both letters are lightly creased with the right corners slightly darkened and both are folded twice for mailing. Together with the September mailing envelope. Very good. Two splendidly detailed and discursive letters from one psychiatrist to another. Dr. Mezer writes to Dr. Foxe in August 1957 after reading Foxe's book "Studies in Criminology". Mezer explains that the Division of Legal Medicine offering psychiatric services to prisoners and parolees has only recently been established and he asks many questions about Foxe's experience of treating patients in a prison setting. He plans also to read Foxe's book "Crime and Sexual Development".Mezer writes his second letter in September 1957 after Foxe has sent him copies of "Crime and Sexual Development" and "The Life and Death Instincts". He muses at length about Foxe's ideas: "I found myself wondering if some of the conclusions were on the basis of the associations of your patients or on the basis of your own interpretations and formulations. For example, why is robbery with a gun late anal rather than phallic, that is, might not the gun be a phallic symbol? Another example might be seeing the car as a female symbol instead of as symbolic of intercourse. This is not said in any critical light, as our limited case material to date tends to confirm the primitive pre-genitality you describe."Mezer, author of "Dynamic Psychiatry in Simple Terms" [1960] examined Albert DeSalvo ["The Boston Strangler"] at the request of F. Lee Bailey. Mezer shocked the courtroom by reporting. "DeSalvo told me he was the strangler.He told me he strangled 13 women.and he went into details of some of them, telling me some of the most intimate acts he committed."A psychiatrist and criminologist, Dr. Foxe was also an avid collector of skating books and even published a skating bibliography.
