The story of George Bogaars, a civil servant who played a key role in Singapore's political history. Do civil servants make a difference? Can they shape history? In 1985 when John Drysdale published one of the first books on the political history of independent Singapore, George E. Bogaars wrote to his daughter with typical understatement, "I feature in it a bit." Bogaars headed the special branch at the time of Operation Cold Store. He reported directly to pioneer leaders such as Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Keng Swee before they became political icons. He started the Singapore Armed Forces from scratch when he was Permanent Secretary of the Interior and Defence. He was the head of the civil service, involved in a dozen or so government-linked companies attempting to shore up the country's infrastructure, and expand its business portfolio. He held the country's purse strings when he moved into the finance ministry before his retirement at the age of fifty-five. His impressive resume belies a colorful, flamboyant character with a wicked sense of humor. Veteran Singaporean journalist Bertha Henson tells his story.

From the INTRODUCTORY. There has been a revolutionary action going on in my mind to which, twenty years ago, I said "Stop!" It stopped not, but the end is now. If a demonstrator of anatomy will give a natural, rational and practical solution of the reason why nerves uniformly accompany the arteries and not so uniformly the veins in, the human system, which they have failed to do up to time of publication, I think I can prove, on a rational and natural basis, that the heart does not circulate the blood, but that the positive and negative electricities, generated from the air in the lungs and from them conveyed to the brain, thence distributed through the system to supply the natural demands of the body, circulate the blood and are the physical life and the motive power of the body, acting in harmony with the spirit life; this may be likened unto the electricity, positive and negative, generated by steam, by water power or other known generative power of electricity, the principles of which are attraction and repulsion, push and pull, motive force or power. Everything is kept in motion by it as long as the power lasts or until the machinery wears out. So with the body. As long as you take air into the lungs, the machinery of the body will be kept in motion, until the machinery is worn out or destroyed by disease or outside influences, etc. Spinal meningitis, congestions and inflammations of the human system can be explained and removed on scientific principles. Will wood and water run an engine without DEGREES steam? Is not steam the motive power of the engine? Can you force water through a pump without a motive power? Will electric cars run without a motive power? Are not horses the motive power of our street cars ? Can you run or keep in motion any kind of machinery without a motive power of some kind? Is not the world kept in motion by a motive power? Are not the lords of creation kept in motion by a motive power? etc. etc. And the man died for the want of air and the heart failed for the want of motive power. The engine failed for the want of steam and the pump failed to deliver water for want of a motive power, and every variety of machinery died for the want of a motive power, and the world may collapse from the same cause. Is not the horse-shoe magnet in equilibrium, electrically considered, and every molecule of the magnet, a perfect magnet, electrically considered? And does not the same principle hold good in all animate and inanimate matter? Is not the electro-magnetic principle in stone the life and cohesive principle of the inanimate substance? And would not the destruction of this principle in nature destroy everything animate and inanimate, in part or whole, in proportion to the destruction of the substance or being? And will not the horse-shoe magnet become deranged, or the electro-magnetic equilibrium in a great measure be destroyed, by dealing the magnet a heavy blow with, a sledge hammer, or otherwise? And would not a person resort to electricity to restore the magnet to its original equilibrium, as the most efficient agent? And if not, why not? When a person is in perfect health, are not the electrical conditions, positive and negative, in equilibrium or harmony in every organ or part of the body, like the magnet in equilibrium, electrically considered? And would not a heavy blow upon the person's head derange the polar and electrical equilibrium of all organs and parts of the body, through the nerves (motor and sentient), in proportion to the extent of 'the injury received by the blow, pr otherwise?- And would not electricity, properly and scientifically administered, restore harmony and an equilibrium in the system as in the magnet? And why not? Can animate matter or a person live without electricities, positive and negative, or north and south polarities?....

The placenta is an organ that connects the developing fetus to the uterine wall, thereby allowing nutrient uptake, waste elimination, and gas exchange via the mother's blood supply. Proper vascular development in the placenta is fundamental to ensuring a healthy fetus and successful pregnancy. This book provides an up-to-date summary and synthesis of knowledge regarding placental vascular biology and discusses the relevance of this vascular bed to the functions of the human placenta.

This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused into cells is then utilized in the mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of all cells. The mitochondria are able to produce ATP until the oxygen tension or PO2 on the cell surface falls to a critical level of about 4–5 mm Hg. Thus, in order to meet the energetic needs of cells, it is important to maintain a continuous supply of oxygen to the mitochondria at or above the critical PO2 . In order to accomplish this desired outcome, the cardiorespiratory system, including the blood, must be capable of regulation to ensure survival of all tissues under a wide range of circumstances. The purpose of this presentation is to provide basic information about the operation and regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the properties of the blood and parenchymal cells, so that a fundamental understanding of the regulation of tissue oxygenation is achieved.

The nineteenth century witnessed a series of revolutions in the production and circulation of images. From lithographs and engraved reproductions of paintings to daguerreotypes, stereoscopic views, and mass-produced sculptures, works of visual art became available in a wider range of media than ever before. But the circulation and reproduction of artworks also raised new questions about the legal rights of painters, sculptors, engravers, photographers, architects, collectors, publishers, and subjects of representation (such as sitters in paintings or photographs). Copyright and patent laws tussled with informal cultural norms and business strategies as individuals and groups attempted to exert some degree of control over these visual creations. With contributions by art historians, legal scholars, historians of publishing, and specialists of painting, photography, sculpture, and graphic arts, this rich collection of essays explores the relationship between intellectual property laws and the cultural, economic, and technological factors that transformed the pictorial landscape during the nineteenth century. This book will be valuable reading for historians of art and visual culture; legal scholars who work on the history of copyright and patent law; and literary scholars and historians who work in the field of book history. It will also resonate with anyone interested in current debates about the circulation and control of images in our digital age.

This e-book will review special features of the cerebral circulation and how they contribute to the physiology of the brain. It describes structural and functional properties of the cerebral circulation that are unique to the brain, an organ with high metabolic demands and the need for tight water and ion homeostasis. Autoregulation is pronounced in the brain, with myogenic, metabolic and neurogenic mechanisms contributing to maintain relatively constant blood flow during both increases and decreases in pressure. In addition, unlike peripheral organs where the majority of vascular resistance resides in small arteries and arterioles, large extracranial and intracranial arteries contribute significantly to vascular resistance in the brain. The prominent role of large arteries in cerebrovascular resistance helps maintain blood flow and protect downstream vessels during changes in perfusion pressure. The cerebral endothelium is also unique in that its barrier properties are in some way more like epithelium than endothelium in the periphery. The cerebral endothelium, known as the blood-brain barrier, has specialized tight junctions that do not allow ions to pass freely and has very low hydraulic conductivity and transcellular transport. This special configuration modifies Starling's forces in the brain microcirculation such that ions retained in the vascular lumen oppose water movement due to hydrostatic pressure. Tight water regulation is necessary in the brain because it has limited capacity for expansion within the skull. Increased intracranial pressure due to vasogenic edema can cause severe neurologic complications and death.
