Phycology

By: Robert Edward Lee

Phycology is the study of algae, the primary photosynthetic organisms in freshwater and marine food chains. Since the publication of the first edition in 1981, this textbook has established itself as a classic resource on this subject. Aimed at upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in phycology, limnology and biological oceanography, this revised edition maintains the format of previous editions, whilst incorporating the recent developments in the field such as: the potential and challenges of producing algae biofuel; the proliferation of algal toxins; and the development of new molecular tools and technologies on ancestry, phylogeny, and taxonomy of algae.

Growing Up In A Pennsylvania Steel Town

By: Edward Nebinger

The author was inspired to write these memoirs of the years he spent growing up in the Pennsylvania steel town of Bethlehem before the Second World War by the realization that they were a pivotal time in American history. While Americans were struggling with the economic hardships of the Great Depression, they never gave up and instead made the best of what they had. Out of their triumph over hardship grew the generation that fought and won the Second World War. The society and culture exemplified by the Pennsylvania steel towns has now vanished but it is hard not to think that, while we have gained much as a society, we have also lost far too many things worthy of preservation. One of these was the great Bethlehem Steel plant itself, the ruins of which stretch for miles along the Lehigh River. Dominating the ruins are the ghostly remains of the five great blast furnaces, preserved to remind people of the greatness that was once Bethlehem Steel and the community that lived in its shadows.

Representing the Professions

Representing the Professions:

By: Edward Gieskes

Representing the Professions unites literary criticism, social and legal history, and Pierre Bourdieu's sociology of culture. It offers a detailed exploration of the professionalization of selected early modern disciplines in an effort to characterize those disciplines in their social, economic, and historical contexts. Unlike recent work on individual responses to social change, Representing the Professions discusses how developing professions responded to changes such as the Tudor centralization of authority, the enormous growth of legal business, the expansion of both literacy and an entertainment market, and the growth of the theater. The book moves between a broad and narrow historical focus to describe how institutional and individual histories contstruct early modern versions of professionalism. Patterns established in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries have effects that shape subsequent developments in the literary profession and professions more generally. This study produces a structural history of the early modern professions that will provide insights into later developments in the more general process of professionalism in later centuries. Using various sources, including plays by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, legal documents, manuscript handbooks, theatrical records, and public papers related to the Tudor monarchy, the author shows how early modern administration, law, theater, and writing gave rise to an embracing professional field whose parameters continue to play a major role in the ongoing constitution and reconstitution of modernity
