Overview


The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.

About the Author

Robert Greene is a bestselling author for his books on power, seduction and strategy. His first book, The 48 Laws of Power, is a controversial guide to achieving power, drawing from the likes of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu and Henry Kissinger. The highly cited book has sold over a million copies and continues to be widely debated.

Greene's second book and follow-up to The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, outlines the nine types of seducers (the siren, the rake, the ideal lover, the dandy, the natural, the coquette, the charmer, the charismatic and the star) and draws on historical figures like Cleopatra and John F. Kennedy to reinforce the claims of his psychology.

Greene's other books include The 33 Strategies of War, The Laws of Human Nature, and Mastery. He is an internationally renowned expert on power strategies, having been featured in The New York Times, CNN, The New Yorker, Forbes and more, and he speaks five languages. He lives in Los Angeles.
