This is the first episode of a little experiment we're trying this year, a podcast within a podcast on history that we're calling, simply enough, 'Plain History.' There are, I am well aware, a great number of history podcasts out there. But one thing I want to do with this show is to pay special attention to how the past worked. In this episode, for example, we're using the assassination of an American president to consider the practice of medicine in the 19th century. Our subject today is the bestseller 'Destiny of the Republic' by the historian Candice Millard, on the incredible life and absurd and tragic death of President James Garfield. In the summer of 1876, the United States celebrated its 100th birthday at the U.S. Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. Of the millions of people who walked through the grounds, one was Garfield, who attended the centennial with his wife and six children. In four years' time, he would be elected president at a shocking and chaotic Republican convention. But at the time, he was a 44-year-old congressman known in Washington for being a rags-to-riches genius. Garfield was a perfect match for the centennial grounds, which were themselves a gaudy showcase of genius. In Machinery Hall, visitors could pay for a machine to embroider their suspenders with their initials. They could gaze at one of the world's first internal combustion engines, a technology that would in the next 50 years remake the world by powering a million cars, tractors, and tanks. They could see the first Remington typewriter and Edison telegraph system. In the Main Exhibition Building, a little-known teacher for the deaf caused a riot with his science experiment. In one room, the teacher held up a little metal piece to his mouth and read Hamlet's soliloquy into a transmitter. In a separate room, the emperor of Brazil, sitting with an iron box receiver pressed against his ear, heard each word—to be or not to be—reverberating against his eardrum. The teacher's name was Alexander Graham Bell, and the instrument in question had three months earlier received a patent as the world's first working telephone. A few yards away, a scientist named Joseph Lister was having much less success trying to explain his theories of antisepsis to a crowd of skeptical American doctors. He claimed that the same tiny organisms that Pasteur said turned grape juice into wine also turned our wounds into infestations. Lister encouraged doctors to sterilize wounds and to treat their surgical instruments with carbolic acid. But American doctors laughed off these suggestions. Dr. Samuel Gross, the president of the Medical Congress and the most famous surgeon in America, said, “Little if any faith is placed by any enlightened or experienced surgeon on this side of the Atlantic in the so-called carbolic acid treatment of Professor Lister.” American surgeons instead believed in “open-air treatment,” which is exactly what it sounds like. Here are three characters of a story: James Garfield, Alexander Graham Bell, and Lister's theory of antisepsis. They were united at the 1876 centennial. They would be reunited again in five years, under much more gruesome circumstances, brought together by a medical horror show that would end with a dead president.

L'histoire des gants chirurgicaux est étroitement liée à une histoire d'amour entre le célèbre chirurgien américain William Stewart Halsted et sa future épouse, Caroline Hampton. Voici comment cette relation a conduit à l'invention des gants chirurgicaux : Dans les années 1880, Halsted était déjà un pionnier dans le domaine de la chirurgie aux États-Unis, reconnu pour ses compétences et son approche innovante. À l'époque, la notion d'asepsie (prévention des infections en maintenant un environnement stérile) se développait, en grande partie grâce aux travaux du chirurgien britannique Joseph Lister. Toutefois, les méthodes d'asepsie étaient encore rudimentaires, et le lavage intensif des mains avec des solutions antiseptiques, telles que l'acide phénique, était le principal moyen de prévenir les infections. C'est dans ce contexte que Caroline Hampton, une infirmière et assistante en chirurgie, entra dans la vie d'Halsted. Caroline travaillait avec Halsted dans ses salles d'opération à l'hôpital Johns Hopkins, mais les solutions antiseptiques utilisées provoquaient de graves irritations sur ses mains. Elle souffrait de dermatites sévères dues à l'exposition constante aux produits chimiques. La situation était devenue si intolérable pour Caroline qu'elle envisageait de quitter son poste. Pour empêcher cela, Halsted, qui s'était profondément attaché à elle, chercha une solution. Il fit fabriquer, par la société Goodyear Rubber Company, des gants en caoutchouc spécialement conçus pour Caroline afin de protéger ses mains des produits irritants. Ces gants étaient suffisamment fins pour permettre de conserver une bonne dextérité lors des opérations, tout en assurant une barrière contre les substances corrosives. L'idée fonctionna à merveille : Caroline put reprendre son travail sans souffrance. Rapidement, d'autres membres de l'équipe chirurgicale adoptèrent également ces gants, non seulement pour des raisons de confort, mais aussi pour prévenir la contamination des plaies opératoires, bien avant que la stérilisation des instruments et des mains ne devienne une norme incontournable. Ainsi, les gants chirurgicaux sont devenus un élément clé de la pratique chirurgicale moderne. Quant à Halsted et Caroline, leur relation ne se limita pas à ce geste de protection en salle d'opération. Ils se marièrent en 1890, consolidant ainsi le lien entre l'amour et l'innovation médicale. L'histoire de Caroline Hampton et William Stewart Halsted montre comment un geste de bienveillance personnelle peut mener à des avancées majeures dans le domaine médical. Hébergé par Acast.

A história de Joseph Lister, o homem que revolucionou o apavorante mundo das cirurgias do século XIX.
Today's poem–benign anthem of the resilient human spirit or a hymn to radical autonomy?–has divided audiences for more than a century.Born in Gloucester, England, poet, editor, and critic William Ernest Henley was educated at Crypt Grammar School, where he studied with the poet T.E. Brown, and the University of St. Andrews. His father was a struggling bookseller who died when Henley was a teenager. At age 12 Henley was diagnosed with tubercular arthritis that necessitated the amputation of one of his legs just below the knee; the other foot was saved only through a radical surgery performed by Joseph Lister. As he healed in the infirmary, Henley began to write poems, including “Invictus,” which concludes with the oft-referenced lines “I am the master of my fate; / I am the captain of my soul.” Henley's poems often engage themes of inner strength and perseverance. His numerous collections of poetry include A Book of Verses (1888), London Voluntaries (1893), and Hawthorn and Lavender (1899).Henley edited the Scots Observer (which later became the National Observer), through which he befriended writer Rudyard Kipling, and the Magazine of Art, in which he lauded the work of emerging artists James McNeill Whistler and Auguste Rodin. Henley was a close friend of Robert Louis Stevenson, who reportedly based his Long John Silver character in Treasure Island in part on Henley.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Dr. Joseph Lister performed the first antiseptic surgery in 1865, but he may be better known for developing the mouthwash Listerine. Dr. Martin explains why you should switch your mouthwash, and not ditch it.
There's room in the world for all the different ideas. Unfortunately, many of my colleagues would disagree. I've been on Facebook a lot lately, and I've noticed that many doctors who don't share my opinion on alternative medicine jump straight to name-calling. Instead of respectful disagreement or sharing of ideas, culturally, we've gotten to a place where everything is so polarized that it's them and us, and there is no room for a middle ground. The sad part is that the patients will suffer the most as a result. Today I'm sharing a little bit of a history lesson and talking about how I deal with the rude and condescending doctors who refuse to have an open conversation about alternative ways of thinking. I'll also discuss different philosophical concepts and how medicine has evolved. Enjoy the episode! Highlights How standards of care change and the four humors in ancient medicine Ignaz Semmelweis and his discovery of the origin of puerperal fever The terrible backlash that Semmelweis faced before ultimately being proven right Planck's principle and the unfortunate truth about the evolution of medicine Joseph Lister's struggle to get mainstream acceptance for his antiseptic practices The dismissal of alternative medicine by modern doctors and the over-weighting of evidence-based medicine Supporting patients' choices and empowering patients to walk a path that's right for them How the thoughts and accepted norms of the medical community change over the years Why we need to make room for different ideas and respectful disagreement in medicine The current state of medicine and why doctors need to fight to get medicine back Resources Dr. Tassone's Practice https://www.drshawntassone.com/ The Hormone Balance Bible https://tassonemd.com/hormone-balance-bible/ Hormone Archetype Quiz https://tassonemd.lpages.co/hormonearchetypequiz/ Disclaimer This podcast and website represent the opinions of Dr. Shawn Tassone and his guests.

Tim and Jen discuss a beloved epic whose time has come, the Peter Weir masterpiece Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World!The GQ article mentioned appears to be yet more proof of the widespread affection for this film. The doctor who pioneered sanitary practices in medicine was Ignatz Semmelweiss, although these ideas didn't take hold until the time of Joseph Lister. Additionally, other medical men (like Oliver Wendell Holmes, for one) arrived at similar notions independent of Semmelweiss. The latter, in fact, refused to publish anything about hand washing because he believed these practices to be “self-evident.”If you want to read about Grover Cleveland getting surgery at sea and see some icky-yet-illumunating photos, the New York Academy of Medicine has a good blog post about it. If you want more, the book Jen mentioned is called The President is a Sick Man, and author Matthew Algeo answered questions about it in this C-SPAN presentation. Have You Seen This?

December 27, 2022 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Louis Pasteur, the French scientist whose scientific breakthroughs have saved millions of lives, and whose work on microbes sounded the death knell of the idea of spontaneous generation. On this episode of ID the Future, biologist Ann Gauger walks listeners through the triumphs, flaws, and tragedies in the life of this extraordinary individual. In the nineteenth century, it was widely believed that the spontaneous generation of life from non-life was common and unremarkable, since it was thought that spontaneous generation of worms, mold, and other life forms occurred all the time in rotting meat and dirty rags. Pasteur constructed an experiment demonstrating that these “spontaneously” arising worms and such Read More › Source
Over the years of the podcast, we have often struggled with questions of why: why pathogens act the way they do, why certain people get sick while others don't, or why we know little about some diseases. This episode is no exception - sepsis certainly inspires many “whys”. But for perhaps the first time on the pod, we find ourselves grappling not only with “why?” but also with “what?”. What, indeed, is sepsis? Ask a dozen doctors and you may get a dozen different answers. Our first goal for this episode is to sift through the various definitions of sepsis and what we know about its pathology to get a firm handle on this deadly consequence of infection. We then turn our sights to a thrilling period of sepsis history - Joseph Lister and his carbolic acid spray - before attempting to address the status of sepsis around the world today. By the end of the episode, your picture of sepsis may not be crystal clear, but hopefully the edges are a little less blurry.And helping us to de-blur the edges of sepsis is the wonderful Katy Grainger, leading sepsis and amputee advocate and on the Board of Directors of Sepsis Alliance, who shares with us her harrowing sepsis experience.

It was on this date in 1867 that Joseph Lister published his first article outlying the discovery of antiseptic surgery. And it was on this date in 1935 that Adolf Hitler openly ordered German rearmament, in direct violation of the Treaty of Versaille.
Surgery was a bloody and unsanitary business for much of the Victorian Era.

Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders podcast, teaching business owners the not so secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen sidekick and business partner, Dave young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is well, it's us. But we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients. So here's one of those. [Home Heating & Air Conditioning Ad] Dave Young: Stephen, we're recording these podcast episodes over Zoom. And one of the things that Zoom hasn't figured out yet is how to, you can share your screen, you can share files, you can chat, but thank goodness nobody's figured out how to share your breath. Stephen Semple: I don't know whether anyone listening is fans of Futurama but if you remember one of the inventions they had on Futurama, the professor in it had the Smell-O-Scope, which was the telescope that looked out at the universe and you could get the scent of the universe. Dave Young: Yeah. In the chat feature, there would be a share of breath mint function. So you wanted to talk about Listerine today. Stephen Semple: See it all ties together. Dave Young: It all ties together. Right. You see where I was going there? It took me a while. Stephen Semple: Listerine's kind of an interesting story. The idea of Listerine dream was inspired by Louis Pasteur's idea on microbial infections. There was an English doctor, Joseph Lister who demonstrated in 1865, so we're going way back here, that the use of carbolic acid on surgical dressings would reduce infection. So Listerine started off as a way of reducing post-surgery infections. Now Lister's work inspired a St. Louis based doctor, Joseph Lawrence to develop an alcohol based formula that was again, a surgical antiseptic, but it also included a couple of other things, had some menthol in it and a bunch of thymol and it is a trade secret in terms of the extra ingredients in it. And Lawrence named this antiseptic Listerine in honor of Lister. Lister was not involved in the creation of this. It was in honor of him. Dave Young: Okay. Okay. Stephen Semple: I was inspired by this guy from it. So I'm going to call it Listerine. Dave Young: Name it after a famous guy. Stephen Semple: Yeah. I'm going to name it after a famous guy. And he hoped to promote the product as a general germicide as well as a surgical antiseptic. Joseph Lawrence licensed the manufacturing of this formula to a local pharmacist named Jordan Wheat Lambert. You know Lambert pharmaceuticals? That Lambert. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Listerine was promoted and then in 1895, one of the markets that they started promote to was dentists for oral care. And it was the first over the counter mouthwash sold in the United States in 1914. When 1914 came along, that's when they decided to sell it as a over the counter mouthwash. Here's where things get really interesting. So if you think about it, they had this antiseptic that they were using for surgical. There was even a period of time where they tried marketing it as a floor cleaner and a cure for gonorrhea. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: So they had all of these different things that they were trying to fix it on. And then, then they came across this idea that it could be used for bad breath. There's this obscure medical term called halitosis. And they decided to tie it to the whole thing of this solves halitosis, not bad breath, chronic halitosis. So it sounds like- Dave Young:

Introductory note on Joseph Lister (Volume 38, Harvard Classics)
The use of antiseptics in surgery is new. Hardly more than a half century ago surgeons operated in frock coats. Lord Lister, surgeon to Queen Victoria, was among the first to advocate scrupulous cleanliness in dressing wounds. (Volume 38, Harvard Classics) Lister publishes paper on antiseptic treatment, July 27, 1867.

Joseph Lister fue un cirujano británico del siglo 19 que desarrollo una técnica de asepsia para minimizar la mortalidad en los hospitales. En esta primera parte vemos las deplorables condiciones en las que se realizaban operaciones en los albores de la medicina moderna.
El 5 de abril de 1827 nació el cirujano británico Jospeh Lister, un innovador médico que fue el precursor de la cirugía moderna, ideando los métodos de esterilización de instrumentos y manos antes de realizar una intervención quirúrgica.

When someone tells you “that is a stupid idea,” how do you react? Do you reconsider your position? Do you dig your heels in and get defensive? Do you quit, or work harder? Being unpopular is a regular state of affairs for scientists. The nature of the work requires you to disrupt paradigms and make people uncomfortable. How a scientist reacts to that criticism is crucial to their success. Galileo got told he was wrong by the Pope himself. Seriously, the entire Catholic Church told him his idea that the Earth went around the Sun was flawed. But he stood his ground, and ended up in jail. Ignaz Semmelweis had a simpler idea -- that doctors should wash their hands. But that idea was met with opposition as well. He stood his ground and ended up in an asylum. Dr Wayne Lautt of SciMar has spent 30 years being told his ideas are unfounded. How should he react? What are the consequences of pushing back? These science stories from history shed light on the modern research being done on Type 2 Diabetes. Specifically we highlight the work of SciMar as they examine the hormone HISS - Hepatic Insulin Sensitizing Substance - and the effect it has on glucose levels in people who are insulin resistant. www.SciMar.ca
Today, we learn a bit about the person Joseph Lister (personal philosophy/way of being) and how he employed one of the success principles we've seen over and over. … Support this podcast > Become a member of Spaniard School.

“I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.” Long before words like “affirmation” or “motivational” were commonplace, before “inspirational” became an industry, William Ernest Henley—who suffered lifelong illness, amputation, poverty, and devastating loss—wrote a poem reminding all of us not to give up.
With vaccines in the news thanks to the mRNA breakthrough, I thought it would be a good time to talk about Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch. They didn't like each other very much, but both men made immense contributions to the development of the germ theory. Medical science has developed well beyond the work of these two men, but the world is still in their debt. Along the way, I am going to reference John Snow (not of GOT fame), Joseph Lister, Florence Nightingale, Ottoman medical practices, and Sub-Saharan variolation. War has cost the modern world millions of lives. Modern medicine has saved millions. It's important not to lose sight of that fact.

Surgery has always been generally feared and considered as a deadly way of solving medical problems, but did you know that it was actually far worse, until this episode's most influential human invented a method that revolutionized the surgical process and success with innovation and as he says it “GOD'S divine grace”
In the eighth episode of our brand-new podcast series, historian and host Rebecca Rideal is joined by Sick to Death's very own Dean Paton, as well as experts Dr Deborah Brunton, Professor Kate Williams, Dr Lindsey Fitzharris, Dr Anton Howes, and Dr Subhadra Das. This episode explores nineteenth century innovations, discoveries, and looks at key figures such as Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and Joseph Lister. Today's object is a model of smoke damaged lungs. Today's object is an electric shock therapy machine. Written and produced by Rebecca Rideal. Edited and produced by Peter Curry. Theme music: “Time” by The Broxton Hundred. The podcast is brought to you by Sick to Death, an exciting new medical museum in the heart of historic Chester.
In this episode of the podcast series we consider the achievements of two influential medical innovators. Joseph Lister (1827 - 1912) was the Scottish surgeon who pioneered antiseptic surgery and sterilisation of equipment. Govinda Vekataswamy (1918 - 2006) was the Indian eye surgeon who took an idea from manufacturing and fast food and used it to transform the treatment of cataracts.

Trzeci odcinek rozmów o "Uczniach Hippokratesa" toczy się wokół rozwoju nowoczesnej chirurgii. W czasach, kiedy nie znano znieczulenia, biegłość chirurga określał czas w jakim potrafił usunąć chory narząd. Wprowadzenie eteru umożliwiło przeprowadzanie operacji bardziej skomplikowanych i przede wszystkim wymagających czasu. Chirurg wykonywał nie tylko proste amputacje, ale również operował przepukliny, usuwał torbiele jajnika lub pęcherzyk żółciowy w stanie zapalnym. Z czasem chirurga proszono nie tylko do zabiegów planowych, choć bardziej skomplikowanych, takich jak operacje zmienionych rakowo narządów lub mastektomii, ale do tych, które wymagały natychmiastowej interwencji, czyli zabiegów ratujących życie. Wprowadzenie aseptyki i ścisłe przestrzeganie czystości na sali operacyjnej to czasy późniejsze - koniec XIX wieku i zasługa angielskiego chirurga Listera. To jemu zawdzięczamy odkażanie karbolem narzędzi chirurgicznych, konieczność mycia rąk przed operacją i zakładanie czystych fartuchów. dziś nie wyobrażamy sobie chirurgii bez znieczulenia i aseptyki. W drugiej połowie XIX wieku należało stoczyć o to walkę.

¿Cómo creer que el solo hecho de lavarnos las manos podría salvar vidas? Si hoy lo sabemos, es grabar a Joseph Lister, quien, en 1867, y siguiendo las teorías de Pasteur, aplicó los primeros métodos antisépticos en las cirugías. Andrés Kalawski cuenta la historia con Paula Molina.
Was haben die bedeutendsten Wissenschaftler des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts gemeinsam? Unter welchen Umständen kann Wissenschaft gefährlich werden? Und wie nah liegen Genie und Wahnsinn beieinander? In dieser Folge von »Suhrkamp espresso« stellen wir vier Bücher zum Thema Wissenschaft, Genie und Wahnsinn vor. In seinem Buch »Das blinde Licht« erzählt Benjamín Labatut in vier beeindruckenden Geschichten von europäischen Wissenschaftlern des 20. Jahrhunderts – darunter Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger und Karl Schwarzschild – und ihren großen Entdeckungen. Lindsey Fitzharris widmet sich in »Der Horror der frühen Medizin« dem Leben und Schaffen von Joseph Lister. Der englische Arzt revolutionierte Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts die Chirurgie, indem er Desinfektionsmittel erfand und ein steriles Umfeld bei Operationen forderte. Eines der bedeutendsten mathematischen Probleme des 21. Jahrhunderts löste Grigori Perelman. In ihrem Buch »Der Beweis des Jahrhunderts« erzählt Masha Gessen die faszinierende Geschichte des russischen Mathematikers, der sich nach dem Beweis der Poincaré-Vermutung, an dem sich bereits die klügsten Köpfe die Zähne ausgebissen hatten, im Jahr 2002 für immer aus dem öffentlichen Leben zurückzog. Dietmar Daths »Niegeschichte«, erschienen bei Matthes & Seitz, befasst sich mit der Frage, was Science Fiction ist und wie sie sich in den Kanon der Literatur- und Geistesgeschichte einfügt.
¿Se lavaron las manos? Esa costumbre que parece tan universal es muy reciente y solo se masificó hacia fines del siglo 19. Antes de eso, ni siquiera los médicos se lavaban las manos. Por esa época (mediados de 1800) las enfermedades infecciosas eran explicadas a través de los miasmas –el aire pestilente que acompañaba a las epidemias– y no de agentes patógenos, como virus y bacterias. Fue el trabajo de Louis Pasteur el que permitió cambiar lentamente nuestra comprensión de las enfermedades y, a partir de sus hallazgos, el cirujano inglés Joseph Lister implementó muchas medidas –como la esterilización del material quirúrgico o el lavado de manos– que han salvado a millones de vidas. Lamentablemente en EEUU las ideas de Pasteur y Lister llegaron demasiado tarde para Garfield. El presidente, no el gato. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/LaCienciaPop)
Dr. Singh highlights several areas of historical infectious diseases milestones in the categories of antibiotics, germ theory sanitation, oral hydration therapy, tissue culture, and vaccines. For antibiotics, he discusses the development of Penicillin; for germ theory, he relates the contributions of infection pioneers like Ernest Koch, Ignaz Semmelweis, and Joseph Lister. The invention of sanitation techniques did more to reduce public mortality from deadly diseases than perhaps any other advancement of the 19th and early twentieth centuries, and this is discussed. Lastly, Dr. Singh acknowledges the contributions of Louis Pasteur in modern virology and the development of vaccines. From a lecture recorded in February, 2020.

We continue the achievements of Joseph Lister, who continues to innovate upon carbolic acid for literally decades. It takes time, but eventually a lot of other surgeons come around to his ideas, unlocking new possibilities for surgical procedures. Eventually, those evolve even further into aseptic methods, just keeping bacteria away instead of killing them, many of which we still use today.

Now that anesthesia's been figured out, we still need to address the safety of surgery. Early on, infections were extremely common in surgical procedures, but this week we'll take our first steps towards correcting that, with the help of Joseph Lister, who invented antiseptic surgical techniques.

Welcome back to the latest episode of tom foolery from the Nerds, we have another amazing showing for you this week. Starting off we have Buck telling us about Spaceport America and how Virgin Galactic has moved in and is closer to carrying passengers into space. So get those cheque books out, prepare to sell a kidney because tickets are $250,000 each. But you will need to wait in line as 600 are already sold. But hey, at least this will be a much more comfortable ride then that of Laika, the dog kidnapped from the streets of Moscow and sent into space all those years ago. This has got to be one of the coolest joy flights out there (when it finally gets airborne). Next up the Professor brings us news about Steam becoming strict in relation to release dates. That’s right folks, no longer can dodgy developer’s use Steam’s coming soon feature as free advertising. No, Steam has come out with the metaphysical switch and spanked those fiendish louts for being such naughty children. From now on if the release date needs to be changed you need to listen in to find out exactly what happens. What, you thought we would tell you everything here? Come of it, we tell you in the podcast so listen in. Then we have DJ looking into The Boys the new show from Amazon. This show is being advertised as the most successful show ever, which is saying something as they have a number of great shows. The premise of the show is a battle between the Heroes and a group fighting to bring them down. Buck gives us a heads up that one superhero dies during season one, but not how. All we know is that it is a crappy way to die. DJ is excited about the rise of indie comics and the refreshing change that is happening by using these for content rather than just relying Marvel and DC for superheroes. Want to know more? So do we, listen in and tell us what you think. We look at the games the Nerds are playing and have some discussion around them, with some interesting facts coming out. We know, sorry for educating you with random facts against your will. As normal we have the shout outs, remembrances, birthdays, and events of interest for the week, or do we? You will need to open the show and listen in to find out, also why this metaphysical question is asked. Anyway, please remember to take care of yourselves, look out for each other and stay hydrated.EPISODE NOTES:Spaceport America - https://phys.org/news/2019-08-virgin-galactic-unveiling-mission-space.htmlChanges to Steam release date system - https://www.pcgamesn.com/steam-release-date-coming-soonThe Boys and the rise of the indie comics in screen media - https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a28666172/the-boys-amazon-most-successful-shows/Games currently playingBuck– Company of heroes 2 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/231430/Company_of_Heroes_2/Professor- Zombicide: Invader - https://cmon.com/product/zombicide/zombicide-invaderDJ– Red Dead Redemption 2 - https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/Other topics discussedBranson thinks Trump is not a real billionaire- https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/richard-branson-scathing-letter-president-donald-trump-virgin-billionaire-a7975706.htmlLaika (Soviet space dog to orbit the Earth.)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laika2014 Virgin Galactic crash- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSS_Enterprise_crashSuccessful Virgin Galactic after the 2014 Virgin Galactic crash- https://www.engadget.com/2018/04/05/virgin-galactic-spaceshiptwo-powered-flight-test/Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird (Mach 3+strategic reconnaissance aircraft)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_SR-71_BlackbirdVirgin Galactic Purpose statement- https://www.virgingalactic.com/purpose/On August 13, 2019, NASA at the Trident Basin in Cape Canaveral, Florida, astronauts Doug Hurley, left, and Bob Behnken work with teams from NASA and SpaceX to rehearse crew extraction from SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, which will be used to carry humans to the International Space Station.

Magellan left Spain on 20 September 1519, sailed across the Atlantic, and discovered the strait that bears his name, allowing him to pass through South America into the Pacific Ocean (which he named). The fleet crossed the Pacific, stopping in the Philippines, and eventually reached the Moluccas after two years.

Renowned as the "Father of Railways", Stephenson was considered by the Victorians a great example of diligent application and thirst for improvement. Self-help advocate Samuel Smiles particularly praised his achievements. His chosen rail gauge, sometimes called 'Stephenson gauge', was the basis for the 4 feet 8 1⁄2 inches (1,435 mm) standard gauge used by most of the world's railways. Pioneered by Stephenson, rail transport was one of the most important technological inventions of the 19th century and a key component of the Industrial Revolution.

Den brittiska författaren Rachel Cusk debuterade redan 1993 men det är med sin senaste trilogi hon nått den stora publiken. "Konturer", "Transit" och "Kudos" innebar också hennes pånyttfödelse som författare. I säsongens allra sista Lundströms möter vi den brittiska författaren Rachel Cusk. Hennes tre senaste böcker har översatts i snabb följd till svenska och har hyllats av många kritiker, både i Sverige och utomlands. Hon är född 1967 i Kanada av brittiska föräldrar, tillbringade sin tidiga barndom i Kalifornien och bor sedan 1974 i England. Hon debuterade med boken "Saving Agnes" 1993 och var med i den brittiska tidskriften Grantas exklusiva urval av unga författare i "Best of Young British Novelists" 2003. Rachel Cusk har också skrivit tre öppet självbiografiska böcker. Den första om sitt ambivalenta moderskap: "A Life's Work. On becoming a Mother" 2001, nummer två om en relation i upplösning: "The Last Supper: A Summer in Italy", 2009 och den tredje om sin såriga skilsmässa: "Aftermath. On Marriage and Separation" 2012. Dessa böcker mötte stark kritik i England och Rachel Cusk var nära att tystna som författare. Den nya trilogin blev hennes återkomst till litteraturen och livet. Dessutom har vi frågat tre kloka författare om vad de har tänkt läsa i sommar! Mats Strandberg, Denise Rudberg och Peter Englund delar med sig av sina bästa lästips. Mats Strandbergs sommartips: "Allt jag fått lära mig" av Tara Westover "Främlingar på tåg" av Patricia Highsmith "Konsten att skära i kroppar: Joseph Lister & den moderna kirurgins födelse" av Lindsey Fitzharris Denise Rudbergs sommartips: "Ensam i Berlin" av Hans Fallada "Jane Eyre" av Charlotte Brontë "En gentleman i Moskva" av Amor Towles Peter Englunds sommartips: "Termiternas liv" av Maurice Maeterlinck (1926)* Georges Simenons Kommissarie Maigret-böcker, t.ex. "Den hängde i Liège" "Tusen och en natt" (10 volymer, Bonnier, 1918-1923) * Maurice Maeterlincks bok "Termiternas liv" anses vara ett plagiat av den sydafrikanske författaren Eugène Marais tidigare utgivna verk "Termitens själ".

Der Josef hat uns eingeladen, vor einer Klasse der Pflegeschule Klinikum Nord in Nürnberg unser Unwesen zu treiben und wir sagten mit Freude zu. Live-Publikum, yeah! Wie passend, dass unser Held in dieser Folge ein Namensvetter ist und – oh Wunder – sich die Folge natürlich um Medizin dreht: Joseph Listers operierte Königin Victoria erfolgreich gegen einen Abszess in der Achselhöhle. Der Mann war also ein verdammter Held. Wie es dazu kam und weshalb ein Krankenhaus vor seinem Wirken eher ne Todesfalle war, das erfahrt ihr nur hier (oder nach schneller Suche im Netz).
It’s the birthday of surgeon Joseph Lister (1827), who pioneered the revolutionary practice of hand-washing at hospitals.
Listerine was not made by Joseph Lister, but was named in his honor. What is the purpose of mouthwash? Why are we urged to wash our hands? Who were some of the physicians responsible for reducing mortality of surgery and hospital living? How are things sterilized now? Let’s learn to be scientifically conversational.

It may be hard to understand with hindsight, but for most of human history if we couldn't see something with our eyes it didn't exist. In the early 1840's, in Vienna, this worldview was put to the test when people began to notice that mortality rates during deliveries with doctors were significantly higher than with midwives in the same hospital. One doctor at this hospital, Ignaz Semmelweis, observed that the infection which had killed one of his friends after an injury was similar to the infection that most women suffered from that died as a result of childbirth in the doctor's ward. He surmised that the only way to eliminate the unseen contaminate was to remove the smell that accompanied working on dead bodies. To achieve this he required all doctors to begin washing their hands in a chlorine solution after handling dead bodies. Meanwhile, in other parts of Europe, Louis Pasteur and Joseph Lister were also contributing to their own discoveries in the microscopic world of germs which would revolutionize the field of medicine. This leads to a discussion on the nature of discoveries and whether or not we should expect true revelations in fields anymore or if all advancement is incremental. As with all great discoveries we also talk about the detractors. In this case, the biggest criminal is our own human faults. Why is it that despite over 100 years of research on the matter it is still so hard to get doctors to wash their hands? As always, no episode of Smog on the Nog would be complete without a dose of meandering conversation about the scale of time, was Thanos wrong, and how many Scientologists know about Xenu.

Joseph Lister changed the world of medicine. In her book The Butchering Art: Joseph Lister’s Quest to Transform the Grisly World of Victorian Medicine (Scientific American, 2017), Dr. Lindsey Fitzharris explores the gruesome world of surgery in the 19th century. At this time even a successful surgeries had extremely high mortality rates due to persistent infections. Hospitals were terrifying places filled with death and anyone who could afford it opted to have surgeries in their own home. It is in this world that a Quaker surgeon named Joseph Lister changed medicine forever. Lister bought into germ theory and claimed that they were the source of infection. At the time, this claim was considered ludicrous. He fought infection through the use and evangelization of antiseptics. Although everyone initially bought into his claims, Joseph Lister left the world of medicine a much different place than the one he entered. Jeremy Corr is the co-host of the hit Fixing Healthcare podcast along with industry thought leader Dr. Robert Pearl.

In this very special holiday episode, Dan and Kristin are joined by Dr Lindsey Fitzharris. Lindsey has a PhD in History from Oxford University and authored the wonderful book “The Butchering Art” which details the efforts of Joseph Lister to make surgery safer. We discuss: What surgery was like before anaesthetics and antiseptics How these agents were introduced to Britain Why you didn’t want surgery in a hospital in the 1800s Two key surgeons in Victorian Britain: Liston and Lister Joseph Lister’s relentless drive to introduce antiseptics to surgical practice Lots of gory details about surgery 150 years ago!
Lifelong bffs Erika and Clare talk about Joseph Lister and the invention of modern surgery. Clare is a former history teacher, so you can trust her slightly more than some rando off the street. Erika is a normal person, so she spends 80% of the episode horrified by what she's hearing. Clare's serial killer cat makes a cameo. (Source: The Butchering Art by Lindsey Fitzharris.

The Hungarian obstetrician Ignaz Semmelweis, born 200 years ago this month, saved the lives of hundreds, possibly thousands, of new mothers with his forward-looking ideas about hospital hygiene. He insisted that junior doctors working for him wash their hands in chlorinated lime solution before examining expectant mothers. This simple procedure reduced mortality by something like 90 per cent at the Vienna maternity ward that he was in charge of. Many more deaths could have been prevented had other physicians followed his advice without delay. So why did many in the medical profession resist not just Semmelweis's findings but also similar ideas of his fellow hygiene pioneers, such as Joseph Lister? Quentin Cooper discusses the beginnings of surgical cleanliness with Dr. Sonia Horn from Vienna University, Dr. Andrew Cunningham from Cambridge University and Prof. Michael Worboys from the University of Manchester.

For most of 1800s, surgery was disgusting, filthy, and unsafe. Hospitals were places people desperately tried to avoid, and operations didn’t always result in a clean bill of health. You might even get your testicles accidentally sawed off during a leg amputation. But this all changed with Joseph Lister, who transformed the way that doctors approach surgeries. We talked to Lindsey Fitzharris, author of “The Butchering Art: Joseph Lister's Quest to Transform the Grisly World of Victorian Medicine” about how this shift happened.

Nicola Davis explores the origins of antiseptic surgery and asks what we might learn from its founding father about taking on today’s biggest healthcare threats
Victorian hospitals were known as 'houses of death' and their surgeons, who never washed their hands, were praised for their brute strength and speed. Lindsey Fitzharris tells Andrew Marr about the pioneering British surgeon Joseph Lister who transformed his profession. Anaesthesia was discovered in the 1840s but Professor Lesley Colvin says we're still learning about the complex relationship between the brain and the perception of pain, as well as understanding the potential harm of the increased use of strong opiates. Pain is common to all humans, but could - and should - robots feel pain? This is the question Dr Beth Singler poses in a new film exploring the limits of Artificial Intelligence. And if they are programmed to feel pain, should they also be taught to swear? Dr Emma Byrne looks at the science of bad language and why it can also be harnessed to reduce pain. Producer: Katy Hickman.

Most people have heard of Dr. Joseph Lister and know his name is synonymous with antisepsis. But we dig deep into the details to understand how he came to make his great discovery, as well as learn about his other works and more about the man himself!
Scots have made significant contributions throughout the history of medicine and health. On this episode of Simply Scottish, we look at the achievements of three pioneers in particular – Joseph Lister and his revolutionary use of antiseptic, Elsie Inglis and her dedication to women’s health and war-time medical aid, and Alexander Fleming with his life-changing discovery of penicillin. You’ll also enjoy great Scottish and Celtic music from Runrig, Niamh Parsons, The Clumsy Lovers, and more. This and all future episodes of Simply Scottish are dedicated to my mother Samantha McDiarmid, who passed away on April 18th, 2012. She embodied what it meant to be "simply Scottish" and was the biggest fan of Simply Scottish. I know she's still listening.
