History of Dentistry: A Practical Treatise for the Use of Dental Students and Practitioners. E-book. Formato PDF James Anderson Taylor - Forgotten Books, 2017 -
That dentistry in some form has been practised from the most ancient times, there seems to be but little doubt, since considerable fragmentary evidence still exists as to the general methods used by the ancients. If we stop to inquire who first extracted teeth, made plates or filled carious cavities we shall find that all such information is Shrouded in the mists of antiquity along with the history of the pyra mids and other relics of early civilization. It should be understood that much that is attributed to ancient writers is more or less uncertain, each writer com piling that which had been written before him and adding thereto his own views. For this reason much confusion exists in regard to the exact source of certain historical data. The Arabians collected considerable medical literature in the early days, and most Of the early medical writings were based on their work. In this way, early medical history has become accepted history rather than reliable or authentic history.
The Constitutions of the Free-Masons: Containing the History, Charges and Regulations of That Most Ancient and Right Worshipful Fraternity, for the Use of the Lodges. E-book. Formato PDF James Anderson - Forgotten Books, 2017 -
The Constitutions of the Free-Masons is a set of rules and codes of conduct compiled for the Premier Masonic Grand Lodge of England, it was designed to help make uniform the practice of Freemasonry in the area of South East England, London in particular. The practice of Freemasons across the United Kingdom and Ireland was considered far too broad to be brought into line at the time of writing, although Reverend Anderson had them in mind as later editions show. This constitution was later considered to be responsible for founding the tradition of the story of King Solomon’s Master Builder, it also may be responsible for the pyramid inspired organisational structure of Freemasonry today. Reverend James Anderson’s constitutions were based on the Gothic Constitutions, some of the oldest known masonic manuscripts as well as George Payne’s work from the early eighteenth century. The Constitutions of the Free-Masons, Containing the History, Charges, Regulations and of that most Ancient and Right Worshipful Fraternity, For the Use of the Lodges contains a number of standard masonic commandments and rules including obedience to the rule of a higher power (in this iteration the interpretation is strictly Christian however Freemasons today accept other faiths), civil obedience to laws and rulings, the practice of crafts and crucially rules concerning secrecy about Lodge matters.Reverend Anderson revised and updated this volume many times for the changing needs of Freemasonry across the world but this particular iteration remains a gold standard and an ideal for what he felt would be achievable and desirable in his immediate sphere of influence.
