  • James Dwight Dana 1813-1895
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS PART OF VOLUME IX BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF JAMES DWIGHT DANA 1813-1895 BY LOUIS V. PIRSSON PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1919 CITY OF WASHINGTON PUBLISHED BY THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES December, 1919 JAMES DWIGHT DANA 1813-1895 BY LOUIS V. PIRSSON INTRODUCTION If it appears strange that over twenty years should have elapsed since the death of the noted geologist, James Dwight Dana, before a biographical memoir of his life and work should be presented to the members of this Academy, this has been due to a variety of circumstances, which need not be dwelt upon here. If we have on the one hand the feeling that this should have been done before, on the other there is the advan- tage that from the time that has passed we are enabled to enlarge our perspective and to see in a clearer light the char- acter of the man and the service which he rendered to Amer- ican science. During this period, also, a life of Dana and vari- ous biographical notices, together with estimates of him as a teacher and as a scientist, have appeared, and this material has been freely used by the writer, upon whom has fallen the privi- lege of presenting a memoir to the Academy of one of its founders and most distinguished members.* * The more important American biographical notices which have come to the attention of the writer are the following: James Dwight Dana, by Edward S.

  • David Attis: Mathematics and the Making of Modern Ireland, Trinity College Dublin from Cromwell to the Celtic Tiger, Docent Press, 2014
    Irish Math. Soc. Bulletin Number 76, Winter 2015, 87{90 ISSN 0791-5578 David Attis: Mathematics and the Making of Modern Ireland, Trinity College Dublin from Cromwell to the Celtic Tiger, Docent Press, 2014. ISBN:9780988744981, USD 17.99, 484 pp. REVIEWED BY DAVID SPEARMAN Mathematics in Trinity College Dublin has been a core discipline and area of activity since the college's foundation at the end of the sixteenth century up to the present day. Its history is well docu- mented and has been a subject of interest to historians of science; it forms the central strand of this book. Mathematics is interpreted in a broad sense, reflecting the historical grouping in Trinity of the chairs of mathematics and of natural philosophy. And, despite the book's title, Irish non-Trinity scientists such as Boyle, Kelvin, Stokes, Larmor and Boole are included in the narrative. The au- thor's interest in Irish mathematics reaches back for over twenty years. As an undergraduate in Chicago his enthusiasm for physics was channelled towards history of science which led him to Cam- bridge and then to Princeton and a doctoral thesis which formed the basis from which this book has developed. Over the years he has made many visits to Ireland where he has consulted widely and studied source material. It is important that the material and infor- mation that he has gleaned and a listing of the references from which he has drawn, together with his own commentary and assessment, should be made easily available as it now is with the publication of this book.

  • The Maunder Minimum and the Variable Sun-Earth Connection
    The Maunder Minimum and the Variable Sun-Earth Connection (Front illustration: the Sun without spots, July 27, 1954) By Willie Wei-Hock Soon and Steven H. Yaskell To Soon Gim-Chuan, Chua Chiew-See, Pham Than (Lien+Van’s mother) and Ulla and Anna In Memory of Miriam Fuchs (baba Gil’s mother)---W.H.S. In Memory of Andrew Hoff---S.H.Y. To interrupt His Yellow Plan The Sun does not allow Caprices of the Atmosphere – And even when the Snow Heaves Balls of Specks, like Vicious Boy Directly in His Eye – Does not so much as turn His Head Busy with Majesty – ‘Tis His to stimulate the Earth And magnetize the Sea - And bind Astronomy, in place, Yet Any passing by Would deem Ourselves – the busier As the Minutest Bee That rides – emits a Thunder – A Bomb – to justify Emily Dickinson (poem 224. c. 1862) Since people are by nature poorly equipped to register any but short-term changes, it is not surprising that we fail to notice slower changes in either climate or the sun. John A. Eddy, The New Solar Physics (1977-78) Foreword By E. N. Parker In this time of global warming we are impelled by both the anticipated dire consequences and by scientific curiosity to investigate the factors that drive the climate. Climate has fluctuated strongly and abruptly in the past, with ice ages and interglacial warming as the long term extremes. Historical research in the last decades has shown short term climatic transients to be a frequent occurrence, often imposing disastrous hardship on the afflicted human populations.

This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1972 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

The list of donations to the library since the last meeting was read, and the thanks of the Association were accorded to the donors. The following were elected members of the Association :­ Miss Mary Forster and F. A. Harrison. The following papers were read :- 'On the North-west Highlands and their teachings/ by Pro­ fessor J. F.

THE NORTH-WEST HIGHLANDS AND THEIR TEAOHINGS. By REV. J. F. BLAKE, M.A., F.G.S., Professor of Natural Science, University College, Nottingham. Those who have watched by the advancing tide will have seen that ever and anon a larger wave than usual comes rushing round some unrecovered spot and secures it for the sea j and so the tide comes in. Such waves occur in science, and if, as in geology, there be several fields, one after another thus absorbs the attention of the advancing army. So Palooontology has had its day, and Petrology is in its dawn. As once all hands were eager for the fossil, now all eyes are anxious for the slice.

I provide an account of how Bhutan’s asymmetrical inbetweenness construction is nested in the larger story of the formation and consolidation of imperial British India and its dissolution, and the emergence of post-colonial India as a successor state. I identify and analyze the key economic dynamics of three specific phases (late 18th to mid 19th centuries, mid 19th to early 20th centuries, early 20th century onwards) marked by commercial, production, and security interests, through which this asymmetrical inbetweenness was consolidated.
