It isn’t often in this highly technological environment that a new reference book sees the light of day and becomes an instant classic. Balay’s "Early Periodical Indexes" is such a work. It is the most comprehensive guide available to the indexing of periodical literature from the 16th century until the end of the 19th century. The material itself is widely scattered and difficult to find, and until now there has been no systematic way to even identify it. This extraordinarily useful tool lists and describes titles in a wide range of disciplines. Balay has included indexes publishe

A new and enlightening approach to the fundamentals of back-of-book indexing. No other source gets to the heart of how an indexer converts the substance of the author’s words and ideas in the text into keys found in the index. The emphasis is on methodology throughout, an element previously ignored in published discussions of indexing. An intellectual exercise--termed "thinking" indexing--is presented in depth: the process of extracting, then analyzing, and finally restructuring concepts from the text into meaningful index entries. "Indexes" also includes fresh approaches to problems of

A severe shortage of nurses is being experienced. Part of the problems is connected to the relentless practices of the so-called healthcare organisations including medical groups and hospitals which often insist on 16 hour days with little or no notice. Another part of the problem rests with doctors who continue to offput more and more medical decisions to nurses leading to patient neglect. Finally, the nurses themselves feel exploited and underpaid compared to the workloads and responsibilities being passed on them. This bibliography presents carefully selected review citations to the nursing

The issue of capital punishment is a continually debated issue because it calls into question the values and direction of society. How is a civilization supposed to handle lawbreakers? Are some crimes so heinous and some people so dangerous that the death penalty is the only appropriate response? The United States Constitution prohibits "cruel and unusual punishment," but opinions on whether that includes capital punishment are vehement on both sides. Many states have some form of death penalty, and public opinion seems to indicate support of it in principle. However, many firestorms have erup

Of all mankinds’ vices, racism is one of the most pervasive and stubborn. Success in overcoming racism has been achieved from time to time, but victories have been limited thus far because mankind has focused on personal economic gain or power grabs ignoring generosity of the soul. This bibliography brings together the literature providing access by subject groupings as well as author and subject indexes.
