( Thomas Heywood (1574?-1641), a professional English act...)
Thomas Heywood (1574?-1641), a professional English actor and one of the most prolific playwrights of the seventeenth century, is most famous for his plays written about contemporary English life. The Fair Maid of the West recalls typical Elizabethan bourgeois literature, but its primary relationship is with all adventure narratives regardless of their era. This romantic comedy features vivid pictures of English seaport life and travel to exotic locales by English sea captains. The plot is filled with pirate battles, a shipwreck, courageous adventures, and devoted love. If boredom is the perennial disability of men, adventure stories are the perennial therapy, operating as a restorative by encouraging an intermission in the ordinary powers and interests of the mind.

(Cardiorenal syndrome - the presence of significant renal ...)
Cardiorenal syndrome - the presence of significant renal insufficiency and heart failure simultaneously - constitutes one of the most difficult challenges facing clinicians and researchers today. Given the fundamental role of the kidneys in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance within the body, it comes as no surprise that renal abnormalities are inextricably linked with congestive heart failure. What is surprising is that recent data have indicated that renal dysfunction is a more critical determinant of mortality than heart failure itself. In The Cardiorenal Syndrome: A Clinician s Guide to Pathophysiology and Management, experts from around the world clearly outline the current issues associated with this increasingly prevalent condition, provide invaluable insight into its pathophysiology, and highlight the risks, benefits, and rationales for both practical and promising prevention and treatment strategies, including: • Diuretics • Role of ACE inhibitors/ angiotensin receptor blockers in renal dysfunction • New designer peptides for heart failure • Inotropes and neurohormonal blockade • Dialysis and ultrafiltration • Renal cell therapy • Left ventricular assist device implantation • Renal and/or heart transplantation This book serves as a touchstone for cardiovascular specialists and internists as they encounter the diverse varieties of cardiorenal syndrome and attempt to navigate the radically different and evolving therapeutic options in their quest to provide optimal individualized care for their patients.

Thomas Heywood was born c. 1570 at Lincolnshire, England.
Probability he was the son of the clergyman Robert Heywood.
Heywood is said to have been educated at the University of Cambridge, though his college is a matter of dispute. The persistent tradition that he was a Fellow of Peterhouse was discussed and dismissed by a Master of that college
He was, said Tieck, the "model of a light and rapid talent, " and his plays, as might be expected from his rate of production, bear little trace of artistic elaboration.
Heywood had a keen eye for dramatic situations, and great constructive skill, but his powers of characterization were not on a par with his stagecraft.
He delighted in what he called "merry accidents, " that is, in coarse, broad farce; his fancy and invention were inexhaustible.
For this he was especially fitted by his genuine tenderness and his freedom from affectation, by the sweetness and gentleness for which Lamb praised him.
His masterpiece, A Woman kilde with kindnesse (acted 1603; printed 1607), is a type of the comSdie larmoyanle, and The English Traveller (1633) is a domestic tragedy scarcely inferior to it in pathos and in the elevation of its moral tone.
His first play was probably The Foure Prentises of London: With the Conquest of Jerusalem (printed 1615, but acted some fifteen years earlier).
The two parts of King Edward the Fourth (printed 1600), and of If you know not me, you know no bodie; Or, The Troubles of Queene Elizabeth (1605 and 1606) are chronicle histories.
His other comedies include: The Royall King, and the Loyall subject (acted c. 1600; printed 1637); the two parts of The Fair Maid of the West; Or, A Girle worth Gold (two parts, printed 1631); The Fayre Maid of the Exchange (printed anonymously 1607); The Late Lancashire Witches (1634), written with Richard Brome, and prompted by an actual trial in the preceding year; A Pleasant Comedy, called A Mayden-Head well lost (1634); A Challenge for Beautie (1636); The Wise-Woman of Hogsdon (printed 1638), the witchcraft in this case being matter for comedy, not seriously treated as in the Lancashire play; and Fortune by Land and Sea (printed 1655), whh William Rowley.
Besides his dramatic works, twelve of which were reprinted by the " Shakespeare Society, " and were published by Mr John Pearson in a complete edition of six vols.
with notes and illustrations in 1874, he was the author of Troia Britannica, or Great Britain's Troy (1609), a poem in seventeen cantos "intermixed with many pleasant poetical tales "and "concluding with an universal chronicle from the creation until the present time".
He is best known for his masterpiece A Woman Killed with Kindness, a domestic tragedy, which was first performed in 1603 at the Rose Theatre by the Worcester's Men company.
He was a prolific writer, claiming to have had "an entire hand or at least a maine finger in two hundred and twenty plays", although only a fraction of his work has survived.

Quotations: In his preface to the English Traveller (1633) he describes himself as having had " an entire hand or at least a main finger in two hundred and twenty plays. "
Quotes from others about the person
Johann Ludwig Tieck called him the "model of a light and rare talent", and Charles Lamb wrote that he was a "prose Shakespeare"; Professor Ward, one of Heywood's most sympathetic editors, pointed out that Heywood had a keen eye for dramatic situations and great constructive skill, but his powers of characterization were not on a par with his stagecraft.
