5-0 out of 5 stars Robert Koch: a life in medicine and bacteriology
Writing scientific historical biography that is readable is a difficult task, and Prof. Brock has suceeded in this.

A great book about a great man, that in simple language communicates the excitement of a revolutionary time in medicine where a few people in the space of 20 years changed our world forever.

I loved this book and couldn't put it down, and this is in part due to the author communicating his own enthusiasm for his subject. If you are looking for a gift for anyone working in bioscience or biomedicine then you couldn't do better than this book. ... Read more

Book Description
Three classic books on Louis C. Tiffanys brilliant Art Nouveau works are combined here in one volume. Louis C. Tiffany Rebel in Glass, Louis C. Tiffanys Glass- Bronzes-Lamps, and Louis C.

This combined edition brings the innovative career of one of Americas most original artists to a new generation of collectors. It retains all of the original text and photographs of the former editions and has many additional color photographs of Tiffanys most treasured designs from some of finest museum collections in America. Here are the glass windows, lamps, and vases from the flamboyant 1880s to 1920s era that made Louis C. Tiffany famous. Tiffanys bronze desk sets, paintings, ceramics, mosaic tiles, room interiors, lighting devices, decorative glass, and jewelry are all prominently featured.Every art student, museum professional, historian, antique dealer, and art collector will be dazzled by the variety and exquisite craftsmanship displayed here. The book is a treasure itself. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Important Compilation From One Who Spurred Tiffany's Revival
By the time Louis Comfort Tiffany died in 1933, the once world renouned artist was well on his way to obscurity. In 1954,Robert Koch, then a graduate student studying architecture at Yale University came across Tiffany's work. This introduction spawned a life long immersion in the artistry of Louis C. Tiffany. As a university professor of art history, Robert Koch's influence can be found in the revival of interest in the turn of the 20th century movements known as Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau. His most important contribution, however, has been in repopularizing Tiffany for later generations. Today, many volumes of uneven quality on Tiffany have been published. Most are simply picture books that dazzle the eye. All, however, owe much to the 1964 publication of Robert Koch's original "Rebel in Glass" that stirred the renewal of interest in Louis Tiffany by presenting not only important photographs but original scholarship that still is unsurpassed. The new "Collected Works of Robert Koch" brings together in one volume his three previously published books on Tiffany. As an added bonus, the reader will find new, luscious photographs that further cement Tiffany's place as one of America's most important artists. This book is a must, not only for Tiffany collectors but for anyone interested in the history of American art, Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts. ... Read more

Book Description
The enigmatic science of military intelligence is examined in this personal record, written by Brig.Gen. Oscar W. Koch, who served during World War II as chief of intelligence for General George S. Patton, Jr., one of the most colorful military leaders in American history. General Koch traces the growth and development of the infant science through detailed accounts of the intelligence role in some of the most celebrated battles of the war, and through his personal remembrances of Patton and his relationships with members of his intelligence staff. His story moves from the African campaign through Sicily, into France on D-Day and on to the Battle of the Bulge, pointing out how the work of the intelligence staff made the differences in the final reckoning. General Koch's book is more than a historical study, however. It is the exciting story of the operations behind the cloak and dagger illusions., 6" x 9" ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Patton's Effectiveness
G-2, Intelligence for Patton is an excellent look at a major factor in General Patton's legendary effectiveness as a military commander.General, then Colonel, Koch had a rare talant for gathering critical information, and Patton was wise enough to depend completely on his council.
The author, Robert Hays, in collaboration with General Koch, has written an interesting, comprehensive and important addition to WW2 literature.This book has, understandably, been required reading for any number of intelligence agency members, both here and abroad.I highly recommend this book to any WW2 buff and consider it essential for anyone interested in Patton.

5-0 out of 5 stars Must reading
Military historians universally acknowledge that Oscar Koch was the best intelligence brain of World War II.He was a major reason for Patton's brilliance as a commander, because Patton never made a move without consulting him.This highly readable book offers important insights into Koch's thinking and, perhaps more important, his personal relationship with Patton.It is a "must read" for anyone interested in Patton, military intelligence, or World War II in general.Highly recommended!

4-0 out of 5 stars Not bad, not bad at all
I found that this book was a bit to thin on details, but that it provided an excellent insite into World War Two battlefield intelligence planning. Certainly this is not a book for everyone, but for those in the field of intelligence (military or not), this is a good read.

2-0 out of 5 stars The Crucial Element
BG Koch's slim volume reveals the nuts and bolts of the day to day intelligence grind that led to many of Patton's key victories. In down to earth prose Koch explains how the intelligence section went about its job behind the scenes ensuring operational success for Patton's various WWII commands. This volume helps make clear that many of Patton's accomplishments can be attributed to his understanding of how to exercise his staff at its full potential. While perhaps somewhat dry for the general reader this work is particularly recommended for those interested in historical analysis of the military staff as well as the evolution of combat intelligence organizations and methods. It is also useful to Patton students for its insights into "Old Blood and Guts'" genius of command. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
No other scientist has so aptly earned the title of "father" of his branch of science than Robert Koch. While Pasteur is regarded as the greatest applied bacteriologist, it was Koch who first perfected the pure techniques of cultivating and studying bacteria. When Koch succeeded in isolating the dreaded anthrax bacillus, he became the first to prove that a specific bacterium was the cause of a specific disease. He also developed four famous rules -- still in use today -- for relating one kind of bacteria to one kind of disease. Later, he succeeded in growing pure cultures of bacteria, an essential technique in modern bacteriology. In 1882, Koch astounded the scientific world by first isolating the tubercle bacillus -- the cause of tuberculosis. Later he discovered tuberculin, a substance used in diagnosing tuberculosis today. A tireless worker, Koch went on to save thousands of lives, both human and animal, through his investigation of Asiatic cholera, sleeping sickness, malaria, Texas fever, rinderpest, and Rhodesian red water fever. ...

Description:
One of Ludwik Fleck's ideas about the development of scientific knowledge is that-once a system of interpretation is in place-the process that follows can be characterised as one of inertia: any new evidence comes under a strong pressure to be incorporated into the established frame. This can result in what Fleck called a harmony of illusions (Harmonie der Tauschungen) when contradictory evidence becomes almost invisible or is incorporated into the established frame only by huge efforts. The paper analyses early explanations of the tuberculin reaction as a case study of Fleck's argument. For Robert Koch, who had presented tuberculin in 1890, the compound was supposed to be a diagnostic tool and a cure for tuberculosis. His conception of its effect was rather peculiar, but strictly in line with ideas on the pathogenesis of infectious diseases he had developed much earlier. After tuberculin was released in late 1890, whether Koch's conception was convincing depended on the place that a given observer had in the medical world in late-nineteenth-century Germany. Inside Koch's group, the status of the tuberculin reaction remained stable and tuberculin retained its value as a diagnostic and curative tool. On the other hand, observers from outside that thought collective, and in particular from clinical medicine, soon pointed to flaws in its conception. These critics developed a rather different picture of tuberculin as a mysterious and dangerous drug. No reconciliation followed and what we find instead in German medicine around the year 1900 is the presence of rather contradictory concepts and practices surrounding Koch's wonder cure. ...

Book Description
This collection of translations of some of Koch's important essays represents an important first. It includes three of his essays on anthrax, three on tuberculosis, two on cholera, one on wound infections, and a relective essay entitled "On Bacteriological Research." These papers clearly reflect the coherence and inter-connectedness of Koch's thought. They include the initial presentation of his ideas and also provide examples of his tenacious and devasting responses to his critics. While they only represent some of the many areas of Koch's interests, they serve as excellent samples of his finest contributions. The volume also includes a long introduction which establishes the historical context of Koch's work and of the particular essays translated here. ... Read more
