The volumes include descriptions and illustrations of: methods of erosion control, kereppu<\/em> (a water control method introduced by Dutch engineers to maintain river channels; the word kereppu<\/em> is said to be derived from the Dutch word krip<\/em> (water control)), a method that uses piles of wood to divert water from the rapids of a river, kuidashi <\/em>(a type of water control involving driving piles into the ground), a method used to restore levees breached by floods, irihi<\/em> (a flume installed across an embankment and used for intake and drainage of water), a method of protecting riverbanks by covering them with grass and clay, kagodashi<\/em> (a water control system built by lining up cages filled with stones at right angles to the flow of a river), wooden frames used for water control of gravel and sandy rivers, and other construction methods used to change the flow of a river.<\/p>\n An Act to enable the Company of Proprietors of the canal navigation from Manchester to Bolton and to Bury, to make and maintain a railway from Manchester to Bolton and to Bury, : in the County Palatine of Lancaster, upon or near the line of the said canal navigation; and to make and maintain a collateral branch to communicate therewith.\u00a0<\/strong>[1831] A copy of the act previously owned by Sir John Tobin, who was on the provisional board that founded the Liverpool and Manchester Railway.<\/p>\n Theophrasti Paracelsi chirurgia vulnerum \/ Paracelsus The first Latin edition (translated from the German by Gerhard Dorn) of Paracelsus’ work on the management of wounds and chronic ulcers. These conditions were overtreated at the time, and Paracelsus’ success lay in his conservative, noninterventionist approach, which was based upon his belief in natural healing power and\u00a0mumia<\/em>, an active principle in tissues.<\/p>\n A history of the birds of Europe : including all the species inhabiting the western palaeactic region \/ by H. E. Dresser. The author\u2019s own unique copy with signed bookplate including Dresser\u2019s pre-publication notes to the printers. Composed of 17 volumes (9 volumes of text including index and supplement and 8 volumes of plates) and includes additional wood engraved titles, containing the 721 hand-coloured lithographic plates by J. G. Keulemans, Joseph Wolf, Archibald Thorburn, and Edward Neale. Most plates also in uncoloured states (with or without letters, sometimes in more than one version), some plates in additional coloured state to incorporate\u00a0alterations, some with manuscript annotations (predominantly in Dresser\u2019s hand).<\/p>\n The Peter Mohr Collection Dr Peter Mohr worked as a consultant neurologist at Salford Royal Hospital for 30 years and following his retirement undertook an MSc and PHD in medical history at CHSTM (Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine) under Professor John Pickstone and worked as an honorary volunteer and advisor at the Museum of Medicine and Health.\u00a0The collection comprises approximately 400 volumes on the topics of polio, urology, anatomy, medical instruments, women in medicine and the history of medicine. It also includes some pre-1900 items, multivolume works and serials.<\/p>\n The engineer’s common-place book of practical reference : consisting of rules and tables familiarly adapted to factory and marine steam-engines : to which are added, extensive tables of circumferences, squares, cubes, areas of circles, superficies and solidities of spheres, &c. \/ by William Templeton. A 19th-century engineering reference manual compiled as a handy collection of rules, tables and data for working engineers. It was designed to provide quick \u201cpractical references\u201d for calculations and measurements widely needed in engineering practice at the time.<\/p>\n This has generally been a quiet year with no large-scale accessions in the subject area. Accessions of note include the Martin Campbell-Kelly Collection<\/strong>, a history of computing collection, which relates particularly to the Manchester Mark I and Ferranti Mark I computers.\u00a0 Campbell-Kelly studied the programming strategies and procedures for these computers and the archive includes his interviews with figures such as Geoff Tootill, Tony Brooker, Dietrich Prinz, Cecily Popplewell, and Alick Glennie. \u00a0<\/p>\n Other acquisitions include a set of lecture notes on mechanics by Professor Sam Edwards<\/strong>, 1963,\u00a0 \u00a0notebooks of student John Newton<\/strong> for the B.Sc. physics degree, 1936-1939 (a complete course set), unpublished essays by the Manchester doctor Reginald Luxton<\/strong> (1905-1984) on social and ethical aspects of medicine, and the papers of Malcolm Norcliffe Jones<\/strong> (1936-2023) , Reader in Physical Biochemistry at the University of Manchester from 1981 to 2001 Also accessioned is the digital archive of the Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement<\/strong> (not currently accessible), this includes not only the records of the creation of the Centre, but also background material on the history of the Jodrell Bank Observatory.<\/p>\n Progress has been made with cataloguing HSTM collections, notably the publication of the catalogue of the Frankland Family archive<\/strong>, which includes the papers of the chemist Sir Edward Frankland, his son, Percy (also an academic chemist) and daughter-in-law Grace, a bacteriologist. This archive is a very important scientific collection for the period 1850-1920, and has been described in several Rylands blogs. Also catalogued are the Campbell-Kelly Collection<\/strong> (see above), the papers of Simon Lavington<\/strong> (1939-2025) relating to early initiatives in the study of the history of computing, and the correspondence of Edgar Woodall <\/strong>(1885-1974), a RAMC officer serving on the Western Front. In addition, a substantial group of files in the Jodrell Bank Observatory Archive<\/strong> has been catalogued, mainly covering the period 1980-2000. These are particularly important for the history of the Merlin\/e-Merlin service. All catalogues can be found on ELGAR<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_post_nav _builder_version=”3.17.6″ in_same_term=”off” show_prev=”on” show_next=”on” prev_text=”Previous” next_text=”Next”
