    "[Second Thoughts on Capitalism and the State is a] profoundly reflective book shows a pathway forward for academics and activists alike who are stymied by the disconnect between deep critical scholarship and emancipatory social change, yet who will still not give up the good fight."

    - Professor Diane E. Davis, Harvard University

View Extract

This book offers a semi-diplomatic transcription of Elizabeth Jacob’s Physicall and chyrurgicall receipts (MS Wellcome 3009 (ff. 17r-90r)), an Early Modern English remedy-book housed in the Wellcome Library, London, and hitherto unedited. The edition is accompanied by a linguistic analysis of the text, together with a palaeographic and a codicological study of the volume. As such, this book conforms itself as a primary source for research in historical linguistics and other related fields such as the history of medicine and ecdotics.

Miriam Criado-Peña is a Postgraduate Researcher at the University of Málaga, Spain, where she also collaborates as a research assistant with a project pursuing the electronic edition of hitherto unedited Early Modern English scientific manuscripts. Her research interests lie within the fields of historical linguistics, manuscript studies and corpus linguistics.
