Product Description

In the nineteenth century, the new field of medical bacteriology identified microorganisms and explained how they spread disease. This book interweaves the history of this discipline and the biography of one of its founders, Nobel Prize--winning German physician Robert Koch (1843--1910).

Koch contributed to modern medicine by inventing or improving fundamental techniques such as bacterial staining, solid culture media, mass pure cultures, and the use of animal models. His discoveries, which dominated medical science at the turn of the last century, are epitomized in a set of rules named after him. "Koch's Postulates" are still invoked today in attempts to prove the causal involvement of pathogens in infectious diseases.

In a double history, Christoph Gradmann narrates the development of a discipline and the biography of a scientist. Drawing on Koch's extensive laboratory notes, Gradmann details how Koch developed his scientific method and discovered the bacterial causes of anthrax, tuberculosis, and cholera. Koch tried to bring this knowledge to clinical medicine by developing medicines that would specifically target the bacterial pathogens he identified. And Koch's passion for personal travel developed into a career signature, as he became a pioneer in the study of tropical diseases.

A fascinating look into Koch's personality and his experimental work in medical bacteriology, Laboratory Disease reveals both the biographical and the historical roots of our modern understanding of infectious diseases.

Product Description
In the late 19th century deadly diseases such as tuberculosis and anthrax were unstoppable killers. Doctors were helpless to prevent or effectively treat their patients because nobody knew what caused the disease in the first place. It wasn’t until German scientist Robert Koch showed anthrax and other scourges were caused by specific types of bacteria that mankind began to win the war on disease. In addition to being a renowned researcher, Koch was also an important technical innovator. He was the first to develop an effective system for staining and photographing the microbes he studied under the microscope, the first to establish a scientific protocol to isolate and identify pathogens, and the first to use agar as a medium to grow bacterial cultures in the lab. Koch’s lifelong dedication to eradicating disease earned him the 1905 Nobel Prize for Medicine and ensured his legacy as the founder of modern bacteriology. ... Read more

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

Product 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

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. ...

Magisterarbeit aus dem Jahr 1992 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Film und Fernsehen, Note: Sehr gut, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (Institut für Kommunikationswissenschaft (Zeitungswissenschaft)), 93 Eintragungen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen:Bd.1: 143 Seiten, Bd.2: 100 Seiten (Anhang). Achtung: Die Scans im Anhang sind teilweise schlecht leserlich!, Abstract: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Spielfilm "Robert Koch - Der Bekämpfer des Todes", der 1939 von Hans Steinhoff gedreht wurde. Dabei soll dieser Film auf seine propagandistischen Inhalte untersucht werden, ganz besonders auf jene, die nur im Zusammenhang mit dem zeitgenössischen Kontext der Entstehung und Aufführung des Filmes im Dritten Reich verständlich sind. Dies bedeutet, dass die inhaltliche Gestaltung des Filmes in Bezug gesetzt werden soll zu den politischen und propagandistischen Informationen, die zur Zeit der damaligen Aufführung im Umlauf waren. Besonderes Augenmerk soll dabei auf antisemitische Aussagen geworfen werden. Dem Massenmedium Film kommt mit seinem eigenständigen sprachlichen und emotionalen Code eine besondere Bedeutung für die politische Nutzung als Propagandamittel im Dritten Reich zu. Zwar existiert diesbezüglich eine Fülle von Material, die Forschung konzentrierte sich jedoch bisher immer auf eine zusammenfassende Darstellung des NS-Filmwesens oder auf die Analyse einiger weniger Filme, wie z.B. die Parteifilme von 1933 (Steinhoffs "Hitlerjunge Quex", Seitz' "SA-Mann Brand" und Wenzlers "Hans Westmar") oder "Jud Süß" (Harlan, 1941). Was fehlt, ist die Untersuchung weiterer, auf den ersten Blick nicht als antisemtisch erkennbare, Filme, deren Einordnung in den politischen Kontext sowie ihre Ergänzung durch andere propagandistische Aussagen aus unterschiedlichsten Bereichen. Das so entstehnde Bild des Wirkzusammenhangs unterschiedlichster propagandistischer Aussagen erschließt einen Einblick auf das konnotative Umfeld ... 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

Product Description

Pharmacology: Connections to Nursing Practice recognizes that pharmacology is not an academic discipline to be learned for its own sake, but a critical tool to prevent disease and promote healing of illness. This connection to patients, their assessment, diagnoses, and interventions, supports basic nursing practice. Like other core nursing subjects, the focus of pharmacology must be to teach and promote wellness for patients. Pharmacology: Connections to Nursing Practice identifies key pharmacologic concepts and mechanisms and clearly connects them to current nursing theory and practice for providing optimal patient care.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book
I love this book. This is my guilty pleasure in my nursing program. This is one of the few textbooks I do the required reading from. The book is set up for student success and understanding. The headings for the paragraphs give you the punch line, then you read the paragraph (so you get the main point straight up and then expound upon the knowledge). The punchlines are also great for skimming, if that is your thing. It explains the biology and mechanisms of action for classes of drugs. Then it gives you prototype drugs and their mechanism of action, uses, side effects, and contraindications (all the while, applying it to what you just read).

5-0 out of 5 stars An excellent introductory text for understanding economics
A. Robert Koch has presented an intelligible and thorough text to grasp basic economic principles. It is well designed for students who just have a cursory interest in understanding how economic principles can be applied to their daily lives.Noneconomists would find it a valuable guide to see how their daily interactions revolve around economic decisions that significantly impact both their lives and the lives of others in society.Every individual is essentially a "practical economist" according to this concise and comprehensible text.

I found the text enjoyable and a good reinforcement of microeconomic theory, which I had learned years ago. Koch does an excellent job in maintaining the reader's interest by providing numerous real world examples to a subject which can become boring and excessively dry to those not having any genuine interest in learning economics principles.I had the privilege of having Dr. Koch as an economics instructor when I was an undergraduate student at Rutgers University a number of years ago!He always made his lectures exciting and quite realistic. I highly recommend this text to lay people and other novices in the area of economics.
