Book Description
Since the 1970s I have pursued three separate but overlapping and sometimes simultaneous careers: (1) philosopher / writer / teacher / historian of the long nineteenth century, 1789-1914; (2) editor / translator / photographer / publisher / biographer / encyclopedist; (3) cataloging librarian / rare books and special collections librarian / historian of medicine. Somehow these three vocations have garnered me some acclaim, even an entry in Who's Who in America. Each of them has resulted in some published or presented works. Because these works have been scattered in a wide variety of venues, some of which have gone out of print or have otherwise become generally unavailable - and of course with the oral presentations being gone as soon as they are given - I have thought it wise to select, epitomize, and bring them together in one place - here. Thus, what follows in these volumes is what I consider to be the most important of my shorter works.

Book Description
A falling apple inspired the law of gravity—or so the story goes. Is it true? Perhaps not. But why do such stories endure as explanations of how science happens? Newton’s Apple and Other Myths about Science brushes away popular misconceptions to provide a clearer picture of scientific breakthroughs from ancient times to the present.

Book Description
"Bubonic plague first struck Europe in 1348 in a sweeping epidemic that took an enormous toll in lives. In subsequent centuries, plague remained a feared disease that erupted periodically in regional epidemics. Based on experience and observation, officials gradually came to believe that plague was contagious. Therefore, municipal officials, first in Italy and later in the rest of Europe, sought to establish control over these epidemics through a series of regulations aimed at limiting contact between sick and healthy. Beginning in the fifteenth-century, Italian rulers imposed restrictions on travel and the movement of goods, which often had harsh economic and social repercussions, as trade was brought to a stop and families were separated by officials intent on isolating the sick. Such restrictions were later copied in other European countries as the best means available to help limit the spread of plague.
