First Edition
First Edition. Provenance: Birmingham Medical Institute. Near fine copy in the original stiff-card wrappers; edges slightly nicked and dust-dulled as with age. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and strong. Physical description; ix, 159 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. Notes; Includes bibliographical references (p. 134-148) and index. Contents; Why is cycling of interest to the medical profession?; what is the scope of the report?; The health and fitness benefits of cycling - general fitness, lung and respiratory function, cardiovascular disease, life-cycle and the heart; why cycling for the heart?, obesity, other health benefits of exercise, mental health; current patterns of cycle ownership and use - cycle ownership cycle use; deterrents to cycling - effort, climate, cycle theft, work environment; danger on the road - road-accident data, reporting accidents, location of cycle accidents, factors contributing to accidents, accidents involving pedestrians, nature of injuries, cycle paths, risk assessment; air pollution - sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, levels of ozone, hydrocarbons and particulates, carbon monoxide, reducing air pollution; the latent demand for cycling; the role of the individual - taking care, child cyclist training, cycle helmets, conspicuous aids, face-masks; public policy on cycling - current policy on cycling, planning for cycling, continental experience, public attitudes; life-years lost versus life-years gained. Summary; In recent years, public health campaigns advocating regular exercise have tended to overlook one of the simplest and most effective ways of getting fit - cycling. The benefits are not simply limited to shaping up. Riding to work or school means you can exercise as part of the daily routine. Cycling also has much to contribute to the wider public health. Getting on your bike can help reduce air and noise pollution and the increasingly alarming problem of urban congestion. However, the fitness and environmental advantages are frequently overshadowed by fears of injury on our often dangerous roads. Cyclists' concerns are also poorly addressed in current transport policy - a situation this book seeks to redress. The book should be of interest to the general reader, those working in health promotion and education, policy makers and pressure groups. Subjects; Cycling - Safety measures. Cycling - Great Britain - Safety measures. Transportation. Physical fitness. Accidents, traffic. Sports. Bicycling. Exercise. Safety. Cycling - Physiological aspects. Great Britain.

Condition: Very Good. 240 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Very clean, like new in publishers shrink-wrap. A tight copy. Terence Donovan was one of the foremost photographers of his generation--among the greatest Britain has ever produced. He came to prominence in London as part of a postwar renaissance in art, fashion, graphic design and photography, and--alongside David Bailey and Brian Duffy (photographers of a similar working-class background)--he captured and helped create the Swinging London of the 1960s. Donovan socialized with celebrities and royalty, and found himself elevated to stardom in his own right, and yet, despite his success and status, there has never been a serious evaluation of Donovan?s fashion work: he allowed no monographs to be published during his lifetime. Terence Donovan Fashion is therefore the first publication of his fashion photographs. Arranged chronologically, and with an illuminating text by Robin Muir (ex-picture editor of Vogue), the book considers Donovan in the social and cultural context of his time, showing how his constant experimentation not only set him apart, but also influenced generations to come. Designed by former art director of Nova magazine and Pentagram partner David Hillman, and with images selected by Hillman, the artist?s widow Diana Donovan and Grace Coddington, creative director of American Vogue, this volume is indisputably a landmark publication in the history of fashion photography.
