Description:
Routledge, London, 1910. First Thus. Hardcover (Half Vellum). Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. The second volume in the 'Books That Marked Epochs' series bound in gilt ruled half vellum over blue boards with blue end-papers. Contents list at the front followed by the Yeats introduction. William Blake is a poet without parallel, who remains a source of wisdom and inspiration to countless individuals throughout the world. This selection was commissioned in 1905 by the firm of George Routledge from W. B. Yeats, who had previously been one of the pioneer editors of Blake's prophetic books. Yeats, one of the few poets whose work could be compared with that of Blake, prepared a unique selection of his poetic and prose writings. There is no better way to encounter the work of one poetic genius than as it is presented by another, and Yeats understood Blake in a way few others did. At the rear are notes to the poems (pp.261-77) Size: 16mo - over 5¾" -…

Description:
The Larks Press, Dereham, Norfolk, 1998. First Edition. Softcover. As New. Illustrator: Katherine Yorke. This book is about Attlebridge, Norfolk, in the 1920s and 30s, with some excursions to the neighbouring villages of Alderford, Swannington, Morton and Felthorpe. But it is more than just another book of nostalgia for the old days, for the author was burdened with 'problem parents', a father who was too proud to take orders from another and a mother for whom 'houseproudness' was the eighth deadly sin. They lived, therefore, in primitive conditions in a shack in the woods where Harry Yorke's many eccentricities could be freely exercised. These ranged from reciting poetry in the gravel-pit to building the 'Wayfarers' Hostel', a wooden chapel of which he was both architect and priest. This is a fascinating story of triumph over adversity, for Katherine, despite her sufferings, grew up with a deep love for the village where she spent her childhood and an astonishing…

Description:
Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1996. First Edition. Red Cloth. Near Fine/No Jacket. gilt titles spine & front; illustratwed by b/w. photo's. charts & diagrams; "the term 'amyloidosis' describes a group of diseases characterized by extracellular deposition of a fibrillar protein, amyloid, (Cohen 1967; Glenner et al. 1970). The growing mass of amyloid fibrils associates with plasma and extracellular matrix proteins and proteoglycans to form amyloid deposits. The amyloid deposits bind Congo red stain and. give a green birefringence in polarized light, which is the most common histological criterion used for the presence of amyloid deposits in tissues (Cooper 1974). Characteristic fibrils of 7-10 nm diameter with a random twist are seen using electron microscopy, and a B-pleated sheet configuration is viewed with X-ray crystallography (Cohen and Calkins 1959). Amyloid fibrils are known to be highly insoluble under physiological conditions and resistant to normal…
