Just re-read this book after many, many years and I still love it. It was one of my absolute favorites as a little girl.

Stewardesses have affairs with Broadway producers who turn out to be queer and quite kinky, and with married Chrysler salesmen who aren't really going to leave their wives in Kansas City. Then they decide the life of a flight attendant is too rough for them and they go back to Philadelphia and White River Junction, respectively. This shocking tale seems to be written to talk little girls into marrying and becoming suburban housewives, because the big, bad world out there is, well, big and bad.

It bothers me that I didn't really care for this book, because I seem to remember that I LOVED Kincaid's book, As Hot As It Was You Ought to Thank Me. But I don't really even remember that book, so it doesn't matter. This one...was kind of like reading a grown-up version of "See Spot Run." The author didn't really tell a story so much as simply describe what the characters were doing. Early on, it didn't bother me too much, but the middle of the book was a huge drag -- made worse by Kincaid's awkward attempt to write dialogue in Ebonics for Arnold and every other African-American character. By the end, I just wanted to be finished and was kind of annoyed that I hadn't jumped ship.

This is the book that Slumdog Millionaire is based on (I haven't seen the movie). It was a last minute airport purchase and it made being stuck in Houston an extra couple of hours pretty enjoyable. The basic idea is that they have a new game show in India similar to Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. A kid from the Indian slums makes it on the show and answers all of the questions correctly. They suspect that he somehow cheated. The book is about him telling his lawer what life experiences caused him to know the answer to each question. Unfortunately it is pretty graphic and gritty in certain parts. Bad stuff seems to happen more often in the third world and this book doesn't leave those things out. I would have given it 4 stars if it weren't for a few pretty disturbing parts that could have been left out. It reminds me of the Kite Runner in that way.

a bit dated (in my own opinion) but that only speaks of the more "modern" pieces included... the techniques that she presents (and teaches quite explicitly) are timeless, and priceless...

A beautiful book with a believable image of an environmentally ravaged future.

From the delicate porcelain doll in her beaded satin gown on the cover, you know you are in for an esthetic experience at the sensitive hands of the women responsible for this book. Porter is curator of the History of Medicine Collections at Duke University. Art historian Hansen was brought on board to write this catalog of a show the two assembled from the collections of four North Carolina medical schools. Items on display included a rare hand-colored copy of Vesalius’ Renaissance anatomy text, a Japanese scroll depicting the god of wind unleashing the devastation of Hiroshima during World War II, a series of tinted stereopticon cards revealing diseases of the skin, one of four known copies of the first book to use the term ophthalmology, a 17th-century copy of a 14th-century Persian text on the circulatory system…I’m devastated I didn’t know about the show while it was occurring, so I could have visited these treasures in person. One of the most exquisite items in the book is an ivory bas-relief called “Vanitas skeleton tomb scene.” Like many of the items in the medical schools’ collections, the origin of this piece is unknown. A skeleton with a severely curved spine leans against a clock. At his feet rest a peasant’s scythe, a pope’s crown, and a knight’s helmet. This fragile beauty was, for me, worth the price of the book. Some illustrations are difficult to examine, like the two-part etching of “Amputation using a screw tourniquet” and the German woodcut of a flayed brain flaps of skin hang down alongside the droopy eyes of a man’s face not yet removed from his skull. It’s hard not to empathize with the victims pictured here. While the anatomy artworks were the main draw for me, the inclusion of alchemical illustrations, Italian apothecary jars, ivory-handled tooth keys, and botanical illustrations round out the milieu in which the medical models and texts would have been used. I found them very evocative. Beyond the beautifully reproduced photos of the show, the text of The Physician’s Art is filled with fascinating tidbits. I had no idea there was a name for a man flayed of his skin, but a three-dimensional statuette is called an “écorché” and harkens back to St. Bartholomew holding his own skin on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. I’m glad to have made the acquaintance of Mme. Angélique du Coudray, an 18th-century midwife commissioned by the King of France to teach childbirth techniques in an effort to lower the infant mortality rate. Pills silvered or gilt for wealthy patients just go to show that medicine was always more palatable, the more you could afford to pay.

Bir adam kötü bir karar verir, daha fazla insan kötü kararlar verir. Çoğu mutsuz ya da en azından yaptıkları seçimlerden rahatsız. Gerçekten o kadar çok sevmedim.
