    9/07.2 Edwin Way Teale May 30, 2008 9/07.2 Edwin Way Teale Porter County Site: 285 East U.S. Highway 20, Furnessville Researcher: Jill Weiss RESEARCH SUMMARY American naturalists have been cited for combining philosophy and writing in ways that have affected how concerned citizens value and care for their environment.1 Edwin Way Teale has been called one of the twentieth century’s most influential naturalists because of his ability to combine the artistic, philosophical, and scientific in his writing.2 According to the extensive Biographical Dictionary of American and Canadian Naturalists and Environmentalists, “Through his popular books [Teale] convinced Americans they had a personal stake in the preservation of ecological zones [and] convinced them to support national parks and conservation movements.”3 Teale credited his renowned career to his rich childhood spent in the Indiana Dunes, where he developed a love for nature, an eye for photography, and an accessible writing style. 4 He immortalized his boyhood adventures in Dune Boy and later works,5 including Wandering through Winter, for which he became the first naturalist to win a Pulitzer Prize.6 Teale is included in the “heyday of dunes art and literature begun and perpetuated” by a group of artists of the “Chicago Renaissance” movement.7 Naturalists, conservationists, writers, and reviewers have ranked him among the renowned American naturalists who preceded him, including John Muir, John Burroughs, and Henry David Thoreau.8 Born Edwin Alfred Teale9 on June 2, 1899 in Joliet, Illinois,10

    199552_cover 11/30/06 8:42 PM Page 1 Land Use Planning/Policy Rutherford H. Platt Land Use and Society Revised Edition utherford latt R H. P Platt Land Use and Society is a unique and compelling exploration of interactions among law, geog- raphy, history, and culture and of their joint influence on the evolution of land use and urban form in the United States. Originally published in 1996, this completely revised, expanded, and LAND updated edition retains the strengths of the earlier version while introducing a host of new topics and insights on the twenty-first century metropolis. This new edition devotes greater attention to urban land use and related social issues with two new chapters that trace American city and metropolitan change over the twentieth century. More emphasis is given to social justice and the environmental movement and their respective roles in shaping land use and policy in recent decades. This edition of Land Use and Society is USE updated to reflect the 2000 Census, the most recent Supreme Court decisions, and various top- ics of current interest, such as affordable housing, protecting urban water supplies, urban bio- diversity, and “ecological cities.” AND Advanced praise for Land Use and Society, Revised Edition: “The first edition was excellent: readable, teachable, and usable, plus checkable for magpie facts. The new version is even better, with a sharper historical, political, and aesthetic feel. This book runs the table against other land use texts. There won’t be a stronger one until Platt revises again.” SOCIETY —Frank J. Popper, professor, Urban Studies Program, Rutgers University; Visiting Professor, Environmental Studies Program, Princeton University “This book is required reading for students and professionals interested in how Americans have used and abused our natural landscape and a prescription for how we can produce a better future for our land and our people.” —Edward J.

  • SCIENTIFIC METHODS Richard D. Jarrard
    SCIENTIFIC METHODS an online book Richard D. Jarrard Dept. of Geology and Geophysics, University of Utah [email protected] © Richard D. Jarrard 2001 Scientific Methods is an online book about the techniques and processes of science and the experience of being a scientist. This book is written by a scientist for scientists. My hope is that it will be browsed by scientists (including graduate students) and read by undergraduates. Why am I publishing this book online, despite having a willing soft-cover publisher? The main reason is wider availability to readers. A typical science book has a publication run of ~2000 copies, then it goes out of print. Additional factors include educational use and ease of revision. I admit that I would have enjoyed saying that I earned ~25¢/hour by writing this book. Feel free to print a personal copy of this book. Note, however, that this book is copyrighted; it is unethical (see Chapter 10) and illegal to distribute multiple printouts or digital copies or to copy any of these files to other web sites.

  • PULITZERJEVA NAGRADA ZA KNJIŽEVNOST (Pulitzer Prize) Je Prestižna Ameriška Nagrada, Ki Jo Za Leposlovje Podeljujejo Od Leta 1948
    PULITZERJEVA NAGRADA ZA KNJIŽEVNOST (Pulitzer Prize) Je prestižna ameriška nagrada, ki jo za leposlovje podeljujejo od leta 1948. Joseph Pulitzer, strastni časopisni založnik, vizionar in novinar je v svoji oporoki iz leta 1904 predlagal ustanovitev nagrad kot spodbudo za odličnost. Je prvi, ki je pozval k usposabljanju novinarjev na univerzitetni ravni. Nagrade podeljujejo iz področja novinarstva, literature in skladateljstva.
