Despite rapidly becoming a leading treatment for tuberculosis, rickets and other infections and skin diseases, light therapy was a contentious medical practice. Bodily exposure to light, whether for therapeutic or aesthetic ends, persists as a contested subject to this day: recommended to counter psoriasis and other skin conditions as well as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and depression; closely linked to notions of beauty, happiness and well-being, fuelling tourism to sunny locales abroad and the tanning industry at home; and yet with repeated health warnings that it is a dangerous carcinogen. By analysing archival photographs, illustrated medical texts, advertisements, lamps, and goggles and their visual representation of how light acted upon the body, Woloshyn assesses their complicated contribution to the founding of light therapy. Soaking up the rays will appeal to those intrigued by medicine's visual culture, especially academics and students of the histories of art and visual culture, material cultures, medicine, science and technology, and popular culture.20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000bicsscBritish & Irish historybicsscComplementary medicinebicsscHistory of art / art & design stylesbicsscHistory of medicinebicsscheliotherapylight therapymedical humanitiesphototherapysunlightultraviolet radiation20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000British & Irish historyComplementary medicineHistory of art / art & design stylesHistory of medicineAnne Woloshyn Tania1780496BOOK9910917297703321Soaking up the rays: Light therapy and visual culture in Britain, c. 1890-19404422165UNINA04127nam 22006735 450 991098330570332120251028155358.09789819792023981979202910.1007/978-981-97-9202-3(MiAaPQ)EBC31897886(Au-PeEL)EBL31897886(CKB)37465302600041(DE-He213)978-981-97-9202-3(OCoLC)1500772446(EXLCZ)993746530260004120250206d2025 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDifferential Geometry Manifolds, Bundles and Characteristic Classes (Book I-A) /by Elisabetta Barletta, Sorin Dragomir, Mohammad Hasan Shahid, Falleh R. Al-Solamy1st ed. 2025.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2025.1 online resource (1005 pages)Infosys Science Foundation Series in Mathematical Sciences,2364-40449789819792016 9819792010 Chapter 1 Manifolds and Tensor Calculus -- Chapter 2 Differentiable Actions and Principal Bundles -- Chapter 3 Infinite dimensional Differential Geometry.This book, Differential Geometry: Manifolds, Bundles and Characteristic Classes (Book I-A), is the first in a captivating series of four books presenting a choice of topics, among fundamental and more advanced, in differential geometry (DG), such as manifolds and tensor calculus, differentiable actions and principal bundles, parallel displacement and exponential mappings, holonomy, complex line bundles and characteristic classes. The inclusion of an appendix on a few elements of algebraic topology provides a didactical guide towards the more advanced Algebraic Topology literature. The subsequent three books of the series are: Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B) Differential Geometry: Foundations of Cauchy-Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-C) Differential Geometry: Advanced Topics in Cauchy–Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-D) The four books belong to an ampler book project (Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations, and Mathematical Physics, by the same authors) and aim to demonstrate how certain portions of DG and the theory of partial differential equations apply to general relativity and (quantum) gravity theory. These books supply some of the ad hoc DG machinery yet do not constitute a comprehensive treatise on DG, but rather Authors’ choice based on their scientific (mathematical and physical) interests. These are centered around the theory of immersions - isometric, holomorphic, and Cauchy-Riemann (CR) -and pseudohermitian geometry, as devised by Sidney Martin Webster for the study of nondegenerate CR structures, themselves a DG manifestation of the tangential CR equations.Infosys Science Foundation Series in Mathematical Sciences,2364-4044Geometry, DifferentialGlobal analysis (Mathematics)Manifolds (Mathematics)Differential GeometryGlobal Analysis and Analysis on ManifoldsGeometria diferencialthubAnàlisi global (Matemàtica)thubLlibres electrònicsthubGeometry, Differential.Global analysis (Mathematics)Manifolds (Mathematics)Differential Geometry.Global Analysis and Analysis on Manifolds.Geometria diferencialAnàlisi global (Matemàtica)516.36Barletta Elisabetta307923Dragomir Sorin439634Shahid Mohammad Hasan1786037Al-Solamy Falleh R1786038MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910983305703321Differential Geometry4317452UNINA
