This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales, Vol. 71: For the Year 1946 The Seventy-first Annual General Meeting was held in the Society's Rooms, Science House, Gloucester Street, Sydney, on Wednesday, 27th March, 1946. Dr. Ida A. Brown, President, in the Chair. The minutes of the preceding Annual General Meeting (28th March, 1945) were read and confirmed. Presidential Address. Since the last Annual General Meeting of the Society a year ago we have seen the cessation of hostilities after the greatest armed conflict the world has ever witnessed. We hope that the forces which have brought war to a successful conclusion will prevail to restore law and order, and that eventually there will be established "on earth peace, goodwill toward men." Many of our members have been engaged on national service, most of them applying their specialized knowledge and training to the war effort. Some have seen active service, and all but one of these - Dr. Consett Davis, a former Linnean Macleay Fellow - have returned safely and are again taking their places in the scientific community. We welcome them back among us and wish them all success. Following the usual custom the first part of my address is devoted to a brief review of the Society's activities during the past year. Owing to a protracted strike of printing trade employees in the latter half of 1945, followed by power restrictions which extended into 1946, Parts 3-4 of Vol. Ixx of the Proceedings, which should have been printed on 15th September, 1945, were not issued until 15th February, 1946, and it will be some months before Parts 5-6 will be printed. Exchanges received from scientific societies and institutions totaled 670 for the year, compared with 749, 878 and 664 for the three preceding years. Since the cessation of hostilities a number of enquiries have been received from institutions on the foreign exchange list and in a few instances exchange relations have been resumed. It is, therefore, to be expected that the exchanges received next year will show a marked increase. During the year the following institutions have been added to the exchange list: Rothamsted Experimental Station, the All-Union Lenin Library, Moscow, and the Institute of Plant Industry, Leningrad. An interesting feature during the year has been the very marked increase in the purchase of back volumes of the proceedings by overseas libraries, especially in the United States of America. In April, 1945, a special meeting was held to confirm the alterations to the Society's rules, which were approved at a special meeting held in the preceding month, and which were designed to expedite the admission of new members and to provide for the holding of ordinary meetings at such place and time as shall be decided by the Council. In May, 1945, Mr. A. R. Woodhill was re-elected to the Council to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. W. H. Maze. Since the last Annual Meeting the names of nine new members have been added to the list, four Ordinary Members and one Honorary Member have been lost by death and three have resigned. Edmund John Allen, who died on 9th February, 1946, was born at Mackay, Queensland, on 17th July, 1868. He spent many years of his life in northern Queensland in the Construction Branch of the Queensland Railways. Throughout his life he was keenly interested in natural history, especially entomology, the study of dragon-flies being one of his chief hobbies.

Download or read book The Algorithmic Beauty of Plants written by Przemyslaw Prusinkiewicz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available in an affordable softcover edition, this classic in Springer's acclaimed Virtual Laboratory series is the first comprehensive account of the computer simulation of plant development. 150 illustrations, one third of them in colour, vividly demonstrate the spectacular results of the algorithms used to model plant shapes and developmental processes. The latest in computer-generated images allow us to look at plants growing, self-replicating, responding to external factors and even mutating, without becoming entangled in the underlying mathematical formulae involved. The authors place particular emphasis on Lindenmayer systems - a notion conceived by one of the authors, Aristid Lindenmayer, and internationally recognised for its exceptional elegance in modelling biological phenomena. Nonetheless, the two authors take great care to present a survey of alternative methods for plant modelling.

Download or read book Systematics, Evolution, and Biogeography of Compositae written by Vicki Ann Funk and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 1008 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This spectacular book does full justice to the Compositae (Asteraceae), the largest and most successful flowering plant family with some 1700 genera and 24,000 species. It is an indispensable reference, providing the most up-to-date hypotheses of phylogenetic relationships in the family based on molecular and morphological characters, along with the corresponding subfamilial and tribal classification. The 2009 work not only integrates the extensive molecular phylogenetic analyses conducted in the last 25 years, but also uses these to produce a metatree for about 900 taxa of Compositae. The book contains 44 chapters, contributed by 80 authors, covering the history, economic importance, character variation, and systematic and phylogenetic diversity of the family. The emphasis of this work is phylogenetic; its chapters provide a detailed, current, and thoroughly documented presentation of the major (and not so major) clades in the family, citing some 2632 references. Like the Compositae, the book is massive, diverse, and fascinating. It is beautifully illustrated, with 170 figures, and an additional 108 cladograms (all consistently color-coded, based on the geographic range of the included taxa); within these figures are displayed 443 color photographs, clearly demonstrating the amazing array of floral and vegetative form expressed by members of the clade." --NHBS Environment Bookstore.

Download or read book Mobile Museums written by Felix Driver and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobile Museums presents an argument for the importance of circulation in the study of museum collections, past and present. It brings together an impressive array of international scholars and curators from a wide variety of disciplines – including the history of science, museum anthropology and postcolonial history - to consider the mobility of collections. The book combines historical perspectives on the circulation of museum objects in the past with contemporary accounts of their re-mobilisation, notably in the context of Indigenous community engagement. Contributors seek to explore processes of circulation historically in order to re-examine, inform and unsettle common assumptions about the way museum collections have evolved over time and through space. By foregrounding questions of circulation, the chapters in Mobile Museums collectively represent a fundamental shift in the understanding of the history and future uses of museum collections. The book addresses a variety of different types of collection, including the botanical, the ethnographic, the economic and the archaeological. Its perspective is truly global, with case studies drawn from South America, West Africa, Oceania, Australia, the United States, Europe and the UK. Mobile Museums helps us to understand why the mobility of museum collections was a fundamental aspect of their history and why it continues to matter today. Praise for Mobile Museums 'This book advances a paradigm shift in studies of museums and collections. A distinguished group of contributors reveal that collections are not dead assemblages. The nineteenth and twentieth centuries were marked by vigorous international traffic in ethnography and natural history specimens that tell us much about colonialism, travel and the history of knowledge – and have implications for the remobilisation of museums in the future.’ – Nicholas Thomas, University of Cambridge 'The first major work to examine the implications and consequences of the migration of materials from one scientific or cultural milieu to another, it highlights the need for a more nuanced understanding of collections and offers insights into their potential for future re-mobilisation.' – Arthur MacGregor

Download or read book Aboriginal Placenames written by Luise Hercus and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aboriginal approaches to the naming of places across Australia differ radically from the official introduced Anglo-Australian system. However, many of these earlier names have been incorporated into contemporary nomenclature, with considerable reinterpretations of their function and form. Recently, state jurisdictions have encouraged the adoption of a greater number of Indigenous names, sometimes alongside the accepted Anglo-Australian terms, around Sydney Harbour, for example. In some cases, the use of an introduced name, such as Gove, has been contested by local Indigenous people. The 19 studies brought together in this book present an overview of current issues involving Indigenous placenames across the whole of Australia, drawing on the disciplines of geography, linguistics, history, and anthropology. They include meticulous studies of historical records, and perspectives stemming from contemporary Indigenous communities. The book includes a wealth of documentary information on some 400 specific placenames, including those of Sydney Harbour, the Blue Mountains, Canberra, western Victoria, the Lake Eyre district, the Victoria River District, and southwestern Cape York Peninsula.
