Book Synopsis Military Aspects of Geology by : E. P. F. Rose
Download or read book Military Aspects of Geology written by E. P. F. Rose and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book complements the Geological Society’s Special Publication 362: Military Aspects of Hydrogeology. Generated under the auspices of the Society’s History of Geology and Engineering Groups, it contains papers from authors in the UK, USA, Germany and Austria. Substantial papers describe some innovative engineering activities, influenced by geology, undertaken by the armed forces of the opposing nations in World War I. These activities were reactivated and developed in World War II. Examples include trenching from World War I, tunnelling and quarrying from both wars, and the use of geologists to aid German coastal fortification and Allied aerial photographic interpretation in World War II. The extensive introduction and other chapters reveal that ‘military geology’ has a longer history. These chapters relate to pre-twentieth century coastal fortification in the UK and the USA; conflict in the American Civil War; long-term ‘going’ assessments for German forces; tunnel repair after wartime route denial in Hong Kong; and tunnel detection after recent insurgent improvisation in Iraq.

Book Synopsis Women and the Dictionary of National Biography by : Gillian Fenwick
Download or read book Women and the Dictionary of National Biography written by Gillian Fenwick and published by Aldershot, Hants, England : Scolar Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gillian Fenwick's book on DNB women subjects and writers shows that anyone interested in women's history might take the Dictionary of National Biography as a starting point. In theory, the DNB covers the lives of all British women worthy of note from the beginnings of history: in practice, there are 1,518 women among 34,533 men. Here too are small but gradually increasing numbers of women writers working as DNB contributors from the late nineteenth century to the present day.Women and the Dictionary of National Biography shows that the Victorian DNB was largely a male domain - proprietor, editors, staff, contributors and subjects. The first volume had 505 biographies, only 35 of them women, by 87 contributors, four of whom were women. In the early twentieth century volumes there were still few women subjects and even a fall in women writers. DNB women subjects and writers are still in a minority - 12% and 8% respectively in the 1980 - 1985 supplement, but despite the fact that, overall, DNB women subjects are outnumbered by men almost 23 to 1, the revolution in women's lives and in ways of thinking about women is recognised by the modern DNB. This study illustrates its importance as a resource about and by women.Women and the Dictionary of National Biography is the latest stage in Gillian Fenwick's ongoing study of the Dictionary. It begins with a general overview of the DNB, followed by detailed sections on women subjects, women contributors, male contributors who have written about women, and an occupation index of women subjects, with comprehensive listings and summary tables in each category.

Book Synopsis Biographical Dictionary of American Economists by : Ross Emmett
Download or read book Biographical Dictionary of American Economists written by Ross Emmett and published by Thoemmes Continuum. This book was released on 2006-07-10 with total page 1000 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the major schools of American economic thought are represented, ranging from the Constitutional school to the Keynesian and the Chicago School. A significant number of the subjects are female, including figures such as Anna Schwartz, Mabel Timlin, Mabel Newcomer, Margaret Gilpin Reid, Rose Friedman and Elizabeth Boody Schumpeter, highlighting the role that women have played in the development of American economic thought. More generally, the dictionary includes many minor but important figures who have contributed to that development, ranging from William Penn and Cotton Mather to Augustus M. Kelley and Leon Marshall. Individually, the entries capture important and often overlooked contributions to the development of economic thought in America; collectively, they encapsulate the rich diversity of that thought and the influences that have been at play on American economic thinking over four centuries.

Download or read book Four Kings written by George Kimball and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roberto Duran, Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard, and Thomas "Hit Man" Hearns all formed the pantheon of boxing greats during the late 1970s and early 1980s—before the pay-per-view model, when prize fights were telecast on network television and still captured the nation's attention. Championship bouts during this era were replete with revenge and fury, often pitting one of these storied fighters against another. From training camps to locker rooms, author George Kimball was there to cover every body shot, uppercut, and TKO. Inside stories full of drama, sacrifice, fear, and pain make up this treasury of boxing tales brought to life by one of the sport's greatest writers.
