Interview with Eric Houlder, 2 July 2010
No full textEric Houlder taught history in secondary modern, grammar and comprehensive schools in West Yorkshire. Eric recalls his fascination with history as a boy and his education at secondary modern school. He trained to teach in 1959 in Leeds and went on to teach both history and archaeology (his first love). He recalls the freedom he had in the secondary moderns to design the curriculum and include as much local archaeology as he liked, freely taking classes out to local sites with only a word to the Head beforehand. He developed industrial archaeology as the basis for CSE coursework in the 1970s and made a large collection of slides for use in class. He made early use of filmstrips in the classroom and used casettes for students to record the oral history of aged local residents. He took on the Schools History Project, although has some criticisms of its approach. He retired in 1997. Interviewed by Nicola Sheldon

Sheldon and Co's Modern School Third Reader.
No full textTwo fables find their way into this little book: The Lark and Her Young (47) and Trying to Please Everybody (MSA, 73). The latter has a distinctive and lively illustration. This book is in terrible condition: one missing and many torn pages, foxing, a weak binding, and coloring all help to keep its value down! There are strong engravings of children in this book. Some child has written on 238: Do let me sleep ! The binding now exposed shows a fascinating use of a small iron bar, heavy mesh, and nails.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)After Artzybasheff and Sir Robert [sic] L'Estrang
Interview with Eric Evans, 29 June 2009
No full textProfessor Eric Evans is Emeritus Professor of Modern British History at Lancaster University. He also spent 25 years at Chief Examiner for two of the three English awarding bodies. Beginning in the 1970s, Professor Evans reviews the changes which have taken place in the world of history examinations, including the introduction of the GCSE in 1988 and the reform of A level in 2000. He also discusses his work with Nick Tate and the Schools Examination and Assessment Council (SEAC) on the first National Curriculum in 1990. Chief among his concerns has been the growing gap between universities and schools as university academics no longer have a prominent role in the setting or awarding of school examinations.

René Géronimo Favaloro : pioneer of Cardiac Surgery
No full textDr. René G. Favaloro moved to the Cleveland Clinic in 1962 and proceeded to reshape the face of cardiac surgery as we knew it. Together with his colleagues at the Cleveland Clinic, Drs. Effler, Sones, Proudfit, Groves, Sheldon and countless others, he contributed to the double internal mammary arterymyocardial implantation by the Vineberg method, and by May 1967, he reconstructed the right coronary artery by the saphenous vein graft interposition. These landmark procedures paved the way for the aorto-coronary saphenous vein bypass graft in October 1967. Many similar breakthroughs ensued, with the application of the bypass technique to the left coronary artery, the combination of coronary artery bypass graft with left ventricular reconstruction and valve repair/replacement and finally, by December, a double bypass to the right coronary artery and anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery. In June, 1971, Dr. Favaloro decided to leave the Cleveland Clinic and return to Argentina where he created a medical centre, a teaching unit, a research department and finally an Institute of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery. This was his greatest personal ambition. Over and above his brilliant mind and craft, Dr. Favaloro was a man of integrity, courage, honesty and humility, whose name will never cease to reverberate throughout the history of medicine.peer-reviewe
