Syracuse University

Volume IV: The Tolley Years, 1942-1969

By: John Robert Greene

The fourth in a series of volumes on the history of the university focuses on the chancellorship of William Pearson Tolley, whose uniquely distinctive management style contributed to the university's rapid development. At a time when higher education faced its most serious challenges, Syracuse University literally tripled in size, student admissions, and influence under Tolley. Incorporating interviews with alumni, administrators, students, and chancellors Melvin Eggers and Tolley, Greene discusses the intense building and growth period of Tolley's twenty-seven year administration. He recounts in detail the impact of the civil rights struggle and the Vietnam War and uses archival material from Syracuse University's Arents Research Library, which includes a rich selection of photographs never before published.

Shared Land/Conflicting Identity

Trajectories of Israeli & Palestinian Symbol Use

By: Robert C. Rowland,David A. Frank

Shared Land/Conflicting Identity: Trajectories of Israeli and Palestinian Symbol Use argues that rhetoric, ideology, and myth have played key roles in influencing the development of the 100-year conflict between first the Zionist settlers and the current Israeli people and the Palestinian residents in what is now Israel. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is usually treated as an issue of land and water. While these elements are the core of the conflict, they are heavily influenced by the symbols used by both peoples to describe, understand, and persuade each other. The authors argue that symbolic practices deeply influenced the Oslo Accords, and that the breakthrough in the peace process that led to Oslo could not have occurred without a breakthrough in communication styles. Rowland and Frank develop four crucial ideas on social development: the roles of rhetoric, ideology, and myth; the influence of symbolic factors; specific symbolic factors that played a key role in peace negotiations; and the identification and value of criteria for evaluating symbolic practices in any society.

The Rise and Fall of Tobacco in South Carolina

By: Eldred E. Prince,Robert R. Simpson

The first comprehensive history of Bright Leaf tobacco culture of any state to appear in fifty years, this book explores tobacco's influence in South Carolina from its beginnings in the colonial period to its heyday at the turn of the century, the impact of the Depression, the New Deal, and World War II, and on to present-day controversies about health risks due to smoking. The book examines the tobacco growers' struggle against the monopolistic practices of manufacturers, explains the failures of the cooperative reform movement and the Hoover administration's farm policies, and describes how Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal rescued southern agriculture from the Depression and forged a lasting and successful partnership between tobacco farmers and government. The technological revolutions of the post-World War II era and subsequent tobacco economy hardships due to increasingly negative public perception of tobacco use are also highlighted.The book details the roles and motives of key individuals in the development of tobacco culture, including firsthand experiences related by farmers and warehousemen, and offers informed speculations on the future of tobacco culture. Long Green allows readers to better understand the full significance of this cash crop in the history and economy of South Carolina and the American South.

Simulation Methods For Rubber Antivibration Systems

By: Robert Keqi Luo

Rubber-to-metal bonded systems are widely used in industry with long term service, such as in high-speed trains and marine ships. These complex systems are difficult to model and predict. Hence, a comprehensive book for simulation methods in this specialized field is desirable.This book is intended for engineers who work in industry on the simulation, design and applications of rubber anti-vibration systems. In addition, it can serve as a reference book for scientists.This book is the Second Edition of the book entitled 'Numerical Prediction & Case Validation for Rubber Anti-vibration System' (in both English and Chinese). The newly added content contains predictions on idealized Mullins effect without data fitting; creep/relaxation variations from temperature change, loading, hardness and different component and dynamic interaction between solid rubber and fluid.
