Excerpt from Tipyn O'bob, Vol. 15: October, 1917 Briefly there is very little to be said in favor of beginning to wear a gown. The beautifully uniform appearance which the campus would present, the academic atmosphere, the graceful, flowing lines, have all been SO often and so eloquently described that no one dares mention them again. Even the more plebeian and less aesthetic facts, that we have all voted to wear gowns, that their constant use would bring poverty upon the Wilson-laundry-family, that they are unparalleled as water proofs, that these four years are the only time they can be worn; even these have failed to incline the undergraduate heart gown-ward. For these other facts remain. Gowns catch in every door, they trip up ten people on every stairway, they Slide down the neck at every step, they trail in every ink well. They make the tall, Slender figure look positively emaciated; and even one who has never seen the picture can well imagine the effect produced by the short and stumpy person who wears a heavy coat in winter and then superimposes a gown. But at least this much can be said for the gown. It gives the beginner in its use something to grumble about in those long harrowing moments between breakfast and nine O'clock; and that after all is a greater boon than it seems at first Sight. It is an excellent thing to have a gown to abuse when one must abuse. It spares the room-mate and promotes friendly feelings. But after awhile even this advantage will be taken away. For some unknown reason, everyone who wears a gown steadily for a couple Of weeks comes to be one Of those devotees who speak SO tenderly and SO incomprehensibly to their unconverted friends about academic atmosphere and laundry, never mentioning ink wells or obtrusive doors. All that is necessary is a habit: and a habit is not always a dangerous thing. Much smooth repetition Of a collegiate platitude prompts reaction in favour Of an Old cast-off, whose place it has come to fill. It is so very easy to point the finger Of scorn at grinds, SO easy to fortify ourselves against their attitude by the usual current half-truths. We are glib in a wisdom which must have been useful once, in checking a dangerous tendency, but from which the virtue is beginning to depart. After all.

Professor Frederick Lothian, retired engineer, world expert on concrete and connoisseur of modernist design, has quarantined himself from life by moving to a retirement village. Surrounded and obstructed by the debris of his life, he is determined to be miserable, but is tired of his existence and of the life he has chosen. When a series of unfortunate incidents forces him and his neighbour, Jan, together, he begins to realise the damage done by the accumulation of a lifetime's secrets and lies, and to comprehend his own shortcomings. Finally, Frederick Lothian has the opportunity to build something meaningful for the ones he loves. Humorous, poignant and galvanising, this is a novel about all kinds of extinction - natural, racial, national and personal - and what we can do to prevent them.

The only annotated edition of M. R. James’s writings currently available Count Magnus and Other Ghost Stories contains the entire first two volumes of James’s ghost stories, Ghost Stories of an Antiquary and More Ghost Stories of an Antiquary. These volumes are both the culmination of the nineteenth-century ghost story tradition and the inspiration for much of the best twentieth-century work in this genre. Included in this collection are such landmark tales as “Count Magnus,” set in the wilds of Sweden; “Number 13,” a distinctive tale about a haunted hotel room; “Casting the Runes,” a richly complex tale of sorcery that served as the basis for the classic horror film Curse of the Demon; and “Oh, Whistle, and I’ll Come to You, My Lad,” one of the most frightening tales in literature. The appendix includes several rare texts, including “A Night in King’s College Chapel,” James’s first known ghost story. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

"This book is the result of a study in which the authors identified all of the American women who earned PhD's in mathematics before 1940, and collected extensive biographical and bibliographical information about each of them. By reconstructing as complete a picture as possible of this group of women, Green and LaDuke reveal insights into the larger scientific and cultural communities in which they lived and worked." "The book contains an extended introductory essay, as well as biographical entries for each of the 228 women in the study. The authors examine family backgrounds, education, careers, and other professional activities. They show that there were many more women earning PhD's in mathematics before 1940 than is commonly thought." "The material will be of interest to researchers, teachers, and students in mathematics, history of mathematics, history of science, women's studies, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
