American Sheep
Author: Brett Bannor
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820367176
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
"American Sheep introduces the "remarkable story" of how sheep helped shape American history from the colonial era through the early twentieth century. By introducing the readers to a cast of characters-some forgotten and some famous-whose lives intersected with sheep, the book illuminates the roles the animals played in the "growth and development of the United States." John Brown's relationship with sheep, for example, reveals how "sheep culture influenced racial relations." And John Muir's fears about sheep grazing in Yosemite were central to the development of the environmental movement his name is most often attached to. American Sheep, in other words, is a book that shears away our misunderstandings of the past and weaves sheep into the fabric of American economic and social history"--

The Power of Words
Author: David S. Kaufer
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135618127
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Over the past several years, David Kaufer and his colleagues have developed a software program for analyzing writing (DocuScope). This book illustrates the concepts and rhetorical theory behind the software analysis, examining patterns in writing and showing writers how their writing works in different categories to accomplish varying objectives.

Finite Superstrings
Author: John Gerald Taylor
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789810209698
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
This is the first complete account of the construction and finiteness analysis of multi-loop scattering amplitudes for superstrings, and of the guarantee that for certain superstrings (in particular the heterotic one), the symmetries of the theory in the embedding space-time are those of the super-poincar group SP10 and that the multi-loop amplitudes are each finite. The book attempts to be self-contained in its analysis, although it draws on the works of many researchers. It also presents the first complete field theory for such superstrings. As such it demonstrates that gravity can be quantized satisfactorily by superstrings.

Masculinities in Forests
Author: Carol J. Pierce Colfer
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000209822
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Masculinities in Forests: Representations of Diversity demonstrates the wide variability in ideas about, and practice of, masculinity in different forests, and how these relate to forest management. While forestry is widely considered a masculine domain, a significant portion of the literature on gender and development focuses on the role of women, not men. This book addresses this gap and also highlights how there are significant, demonstrable differences in masculinities from forest to forest. The book develops a simple conceptual framework for considering masculinities, one which both acknowledges the stability or enduring quality of masculinities, but also the significant masculinity-related options available to individual men within any given culture. The author draws on her own experiences, building on her long-term experience working globally in the conservation and development worlds, also observing masculinities among such professionals. The core of the book examines masculinities, based on long-term ethnographic research in the rural Pacific Northwest of the US; Long Segar, East Kalimantan; and Sitiung, West Sumatra, both in Indonesia. The author concludes by pulling together the various strands of masculine identities and discussing the implications of these various versions of masculinity for forest management. This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of forestry, gender studies and conservation and development, as well as practitioners and NGOs working in these fields. The Open Access version of this book, available at https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/e/9780367815776, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

The Forms of Music
Author: Donald Francis Tovey
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1473390079
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
Sir Donald Francis Tovey was born in 1875, Donald Francis Tovey was a British musicologist and composer. He took classical honors with his B.A. at Oxford in 1898, and became a pianist of the first rank, though he never sought a virtuoso career. This book contains all the articles which Tovey wrote for the Encyclopaedia Britannica, as they now appear there, with the exception of one on 'Modern Music' and the biographies. The book was set up from printed slips, and thus follows the text finally approved and corrected by the author. The very long musical examples are printed in full. In book form, a few minor alterations have been necessary, mostly in the excising of references, and the bringing of the 'printer's style' into line with that of Tovey's other books. An occasional slip in the musical examples has been corrected.
