FROM IMHOTEP TO IRAQ:
MEDICAL ADVANCES THROUGH WAR
Ronald E. Rosenthal
From the time of the earliest known physicians in ancient Egypt up until the present, many medical advances have come through military experiences. These include epidemiology, sanitation, gastric physiology, amputations, prosthetics, transfusions, burn treatments, and neuro-psychiatric diseases.
Ron will cover this history and how these advances have been integrated into civilian care, projecting what is coming in the future.
Ron is a retired orthopedic surgeon. He served as an Army surgeon in Viet Nam and has held faculty appointments at Washington University, Vanderbilt University, and Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

PORTRAITS OF IMPRESSIONIST ARTISTS
Renoir, Degas, and Cassatt
Join Judy Schurgin, a longtime lecturer at the Wayland Public Library, to view and discuss the many works of these three influential Impressionist artists.
Step into the world of color and gaiety with this series devoted to three late nineteenth century Impressionist artists who painted in France. Auguste Renoir produced gorgeous shimmering light filled paintings of parks, bathing establishments, dance halls, dancers, women and young children. Edgar Degas captured the spirit of modern life by creating scenes of practicing ballet dancers, people sitting in cafes, horses racing, musicians performing, women at their toilettes, and laundresses washing clothes. Mary Cassatt, the first American female artist to exhibit with the French Impressionists, depicted women in a variety of roles, including caring for children, attending the opera, drinking tea, writing letters and communing with nature. All three artists were very diverse and worked in a variety of media.
