While a large body of literature has been devoted to understanding blood pressure, a parameter proven to be predictive of cardiovascular health, very few books are devoted to explaining arterial stiffening, how it worsens, and why is it important for physicians to consider arterial stiffening when treating resistant hypertension.

Historians of Catholic evangelism have similarly directed their attention to the devotional practices of men, neglecting the interior spaces in Chinese households where women worshipped and undertook the transmission of Catholicism to family members and friends. Nadine Amsler?s investigation brings the domestic and devotional practices of women into sharp focus, uncovering a rich body of evidence that demonstrates how Chinese households functioned as sites of evangelization, religious conflict, and indigenization of Christianity.The resulting exploration of gendered realms in seventeenth-century China reveals networks of religious sociability and ritual communities among women as well as women?s remarkable acts of private piety. Amsler?s exhaustive archival research and attention to material culture reveals new insights about women?s agency and domestic activities, illuminating areas of Chinese and Catholic history that have remained obscure, if not entirely invisible, for far too long. 606 $aCatholic women$xReligious life$zChina$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCatholic women$xReligious life$xHistory. 676 $a266/.251 700 $aAmsler$b Nadine$01025641 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910433157603321 996 $aJesuits and Matriarchs$92439192 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$22.50$u11/28/2019$5Relig LEADER 03420nam 22005655 450 001 9910254290203321 005 20200701100442.0 010 $a3-319-66081-0 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-66081-3 035 $a(CKB)4100000000881637 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-66081-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5115887 035 $a(PPN)220126933 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000000881637 100 $a20171027d2017 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aIntroduction to the Study of Natural History $eEdited and Annotated by Christoph Irmscher /$fby Louis Agassiz ; edited by Christoph Irmscher 205 $a1st ed. 2017. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Birkhäuser,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (IX, 126 p. 74 illus. in color.) 225 1 $aClassic Texts in the Sciences,$x2365-9963 311 $a3-319-66079-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aIntroduction -- Louis Agassiz: Introduction to the StuBldy of Natural History -- Commentary and Notes -- Bibliography. 330 $aThis book features Louis Agassiz?s seminal lecture course in which the Swiss-American scientist, a self-styled ?American Humboldt,? summarized the state of zoological knowledge in his time. Though Darwin?s theory of evolution would soon dismantle his idealist science, Agassiz?s lectures are nonetheless modern in their insistence on the social and cultural importance of the scientific enterprise. An extensive, well-illustrated introduction by Agassiz?s biographer, Christoph Irmscher, situates Agassiz?s lectures in the context of his life and nineteenth-century science, while also confronting the deeply problematic aspects of his legacy. Profusely annotated, this edition offers fascinating insights into the history of science and appeals to anyone with an interest in zoology and natural history. ?Christoph Irmscher provides a scholarly and insightful analysis of the intentions and beliefs of Louis Agassiz, a larger-than-life scientist of the mid-19th century and fierce opponent of Charles Darwin.  One of the foremost naturalists of his time, Agassiz?s encyclopedic knowledge and brash confidence sustained bold and often controversial theories, which contributed to extreme intellectual ferment at the dawn of contemporary evolutionary biology.?  James Hanken, Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology, Harvard University, USA. 410 0$aClassic Texts in the Sciences,$x2365-9963 606 $aBotany 606 $aBotany 606 $aZoology 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aZoology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25007 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aZoology. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aZoology. 676 $a508 700 $aAgassiz$b Louis$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0767482 702 $aIrmscher$b Christoph$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254290203321 996 $aIntroduction to the Study of Natural History$91562502 997 $aUNINA
