Per Axel Rydbergs Botanical Collecting Trips to Western Nebraska in 1890 and 1891

By: Robert Kaul,David Sutherland

In the summer of 1891, Per Axel Rydberg and his assistant, Julius Hjalmar Flodman, collected plants in western Nebraska for the United States Department of Agriculture. They collected many first-records for Nebraska as well as some that became type specimens of Rydberg's and other botanists' names. In the following autumn and winter, Ryd-berg made a detailed, typewritten, carbon copied 35-page Report and 37-page List of specimens from that trip; one carbon copy is in the Bessey Herbarium (NEB) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. It is these documents that we present here, extensively annotated with our geographic clarifications, original and updated nomenclature, and citations of specimens in NEB and elsewhere.

The Prosciutto Sundial

Casting Light on an Ancient Roman Timepiece from the Villa Dei Papiri in Herculaneum

By: Christopher Charles Parslow,Robert Rich Professor of Latin Christopher Parslow

The Prosciutto Sundial is the first comprehensive study of the sundial in the shape of a miniature prosciutto from the Villa dei Papiri in Herculaneum from its rediscovery in 1755 to modern times. Drawing on contemporary correspondence and manuscripts, early philological and scientific assessments, and later published accounts, it catalogs the many attempts by scholars and lay people alike to understand how it functioned. It explains the significance of its context in the Villa and, through the results of empirical analysis using a 3D model, highlights the remarkable accuracy of this unique ancient timepiece.

The Oxford Handbook of Applied Linguistics

By: Robert B. Kaplan

The Oxford Handbook of Applied Linguistics contains 39 original chapters on a broad range of topics in applied linguistics by a diverse group of contributors. Its goal is to provide a comprehensive survey of the current state of the field, the many connections among its various sub-disciplines, and the likely directions of its future development. The Oxford Handbook of Applied Linguistics addresses a broad audience: applied linguists; educators and other scholars working in language acquisition, language learning, language planning, teaching, and testing; and linguists concerned with applications of their work. Systematically encompassing the major areas of applied linguistics-and drawing from a wide range of disciplines such as education, language policy, bi- and multi-lingualism, literacy, language and gender, neurobiology of language, psycholinguistics and cognition, language and computers, discourse analysis, language and concordances, ecology of language, pragmatics, translation, and many other fields, the editors and contributors to The Oxford Handbook of Applied Linguistics provide a panoramic and comprehensive look at this complex and vigorous field.

A History of Weed Science in the United States

A History of Weed Science in the United States

By: Robert L Zimdahl

It is important that scientists think about and know their history - where they came from, what they have accomplished, and how these may affect the future. Weed scientists, similar to scientists in many technological disciplines, have not sought historical reflection. The technological world asks for results and for progress. Achievement is important not, in general, the road that leads to achievement. What was new yesterday is routine today, and what is described as revolutionary today may be considered antiquated tomorrow. Weed science has been strongly influenced by technology developed by supporting industries, subsequently employed in research and, ultimately, used by farmers and crop growers. The science has focused on results and progress. Scientists have been--and the majority remain--problem solvers whose solutions have evolved as rapidly as have the new weed problems needing solutions. In a more formal sense, weed scientists have been adherents of the instrumental ideology of modern science. That is an analysis of their work, and their orientation reveals the strong emphasis on practical, useful knowledge; on know how. The opposite, and frequently complementary orientation, that has been missing from weed science is an emphasis on contemplative knowledge; that is, knowing why. This book expands on and analyzes how these orientations have affected weed science's development. - The first analytical history of weed science to be written - Compares the development of weed science, entomology and plant pathology - Identifies the primary founders of weed science and describes their role

Give the Man Room

The Story of Gutzon Borglum

By: Robert J. Casey,Mary Borglum

THE SCULPTOR WHO CARVED THE FACES OF AMERICA’S HEROIC DEAD ON GRANITE MOUNTAINS—AND THEY WERE SELDOM BIG ENOUGH. First published in 1952, Robert John Casey co-wrote this fascinating biography with the wife of Gutzon Borglum (1867-1941), the American sculptor best known for his colossal sculpture of the faces of four U.S. presidents on Mount Rushmore in South Dakota. The son of Danish immigrants, Gutzon Borglum studied art in San Francisco and for four years in Paris at the Académie Julian and the École des Beaux-Arts. His painting and his sculpture were admitted to the officially recognized Salon and he subsequently received important commissions and royal recognition whilst in England. In 1901 Borglum established himself in New York City, where he sculpted a bronze group called The Mares of Diomedes, the first piece of American sculpture bought for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Versatile and prolific, Borglum sculpted many portrait busts of American leaders, as well as of figures such as the Twelve Apostles, which he created for the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine in New York. He turned toward reviving the ancient Egyptian practice of carving gargantuan statues of political figures in natural formations of rock, and executed from a six-ton block of marble a colossal head of President Abraham Lincoln, which was placed in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington, D.C. This led to a commission in 1927 by the state of South Dakota to turn Mount Rushmore, in the Black Hills, into another colossal monument, and that same year Borglum began sculpting the 60-foot-high heads of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt on the face of the mountain. The project was completed in 1941 and became a national memorial. Physically only medium-sized, Borglum was a big man, colorful, worth knowing. The change to know him is here in the stimulating pages of Give the Man Room.

The Sociology of Sports-Talk Radio

By: Robert L. Kerr

The Sociology of Sports-Talk Radio is the latest sports-media scholarship from the author of How Postmodernism Explains Football and Football Explains Postmodernism, winner of the 2017 Outstanding Book Award from the National Communication Association ’s Communication and Sport Division. The book provides a descriptive analysis of the social interaction transpiring in what the author has conceptualized as the “the hyper-mediated marketplace of sports narratives.” It examines the social structures and processes that make sports-talk radio such a vibrant societal milieu, and seeks to identify the essential sociological dynamics that make all that endless chatter so vital to listeners. A qualitative, descriptive analytical focus on this remarkable platform—where people come together to interact insistently, colorfully, and often with stunning ferocity—highlights key processes by which human communicators construct meaning.

Zero-Variable Theories and the Psychology of the Explainer

Zero-Variable Theories and the Psychology of the Explainer

By: Robert A. Wicklund

In Zero-Variable Theories, Dr. Robert Wicklund invites the reader to consider the psychological perspective of the "explainer". In examining the over-simplifications that have become dominant in modern psychology, the author points to such factors as competition with other explainers and pressure to offer and promulgate a unique explanation. The explainer is characterized as equating theory with simple, fixed categories, and as defending those categories as one would defend a personal territory, fending off competing explainers through mis-use of statistical devices. The end result is the formulation of theories that neglect the perspectives of those whose behaviors are to be explained, and which simultaneously exclude psychological variables.

Japan's Secret War

How Japan's Race to Build its Own Atomic Bomb Provided the Groundwork for North Korea's Nuclear Program

By: Robert K. Wilcox

This groundbreaking investigation reveals how a secret atomic weapons program in WWII Japan led to today’s North Korean security crisis. Japan’s Secret War explores one of the least-known, yet highly significant episodes of World War II: Japan’s frantic race to develop its own atomic bomb. Journalist and historian Robert Wilcox then shows how Japan’s efforts evolved into North Korea’s nuclear program and the looming threat it presents to mankind. After decades of research into national intelligence archives in the US and abroad, Wilcox presents a detailed account of Japan’s version of the Manhattan Project. He traces its development from inception to the possible detonation of a nuclear device in 1945. Wilcox weaves a fascinating portrait of the secret industrial complex where Japan’s atomic research culminated. And it is there that North Korea, following the Japanese defeat, salvaged what remained and fashioned its own nuclear program. “Japan’s Secret War is still spellbinding. It is intriguing and disturbing, and Robert Wilcoxdeserves high praise for his meticulous research.” —Historynet.com

Pitt

The Story of the University of Pittsburgh, 1787–1987

By: Robert C. Alberts

This is a history of a major American university from its birth on the western frontier in the eighteenth century through its two-hundredth anniversary. Told primarily through the stories of its energetic and sometimes eccentric chancellors, it's a colorful and highly readable chronicle of the University of Pittsburgh. The story begins in the early spring of 1781, when an ambitious young Philadelphia lawyer named Hugh Henry Brackenridge crossed the Alleghenies to seek his opportunity in Pittsburgh. "My object,"?he wrote, "was to advance the country [Western Pennsylvania] and thereby myself." He founded Pittsburgh Academy, later to be the Western University of Pennsylvania and then the University of Pittsburgh, and lived to see the school grow along with the city. Author Robert C. Alberts, mines the University archives and describes many issues for the first time. Among them is the role played by the Board of Trustees in the conflicts of the administration of Chancellor John Gabbert Bowman, including the firing of a controversial history professor, Ralph Turner; the resignation of the legendary football coach, Jock Sutherland; and a Board investigation into Bowman's handling of faculty and staff. We see Pitt's decade of progress under Edward Litchfield (1956-165), who gambled that the millions of dollars he spent . . . would be forthcoming form somewhere or someone; but who, as it turned out was mistaken." Pitt became a state-related university in August 1966, but financial stability was achieved gradually during the administration of Chancellor Wesley W. Posvar. The ensuing crisis of the 1960s and early 1970, caused by the Vietnam War, and the student protests that accompanied it, are described in rich detail. The history then follows Pitt's emergence as a force in international higher education; the institution's role in fostering a cooperative relationship with business; and its entry into the postindustrial age of high technology. The story of Pitt reflects all the struggles and the hopes of the region. As Alberts writes in his preface, "There was drama; there was tragedy; there was indeed controversy and politics. There were, unexpectedly, rich veins of humor, occasionally of comedy.

Social Housing Found

By: Robert B. Whittlesey

South End Community Development Inc. was a new idea when Whittlesey accepted its directorship. He worked with the United South End Settlements staff on a successful proposal to rehabilitate South End houses in one of Bostons urban renewal areas. They received a grant from the US Federal Housing and Home Agencies for $205,000 matched with a contribution of $50,000 from the United South End Settlements and $75,000 from the Committee of the Permanent Charity Fund, now known as the Boston Foundation. This book tells the story of the completion of that Demonstration Program, of its transformation into a technical assistance corporation, and its expansion into the Greater Boston area. Convinced that financing was key for successful affordable housing ventures, Whittlesey accepted the directorship of the Boston Housing Partnership (BHP). BHP organized the projects, raised financing for them, and had local community development corporations own and operate them. BHP became a model for the nation. Conducting a national survey and identifying the presence of significant housing organizations around the country, Whittlesey then left BHP to head up the organization of a national association of housing partnerships, now known as the Housing Partnership Network (HPN). With a hundred members, by 2014, HPN had collectively developed and preserved over three hundred thousand units of affordable rental housing and built, rehabilitated, or financed sixty-three thousand single-family homes.

Leisure and the Motive to Volunteer: Theories of Serious, Casual, and Project-Based Leisure

By: Robert A. Stebbins

Volunteering and its nonprofit organizations have commonly been analyzed in economic terms, with volunteering being referred to as "unpaid (productive) work". This economic definition has been around far longer than that of volunteering conceived of as leisure, which is discussed as the volitional definition. By means of a lengthy literature review, this book sets out the theoretical and empirical contributions of the serious leisure perspective to understanding volunteer motivation. This second approach began more than 40 years ago. It answers the key motivational question of why people engage in unpaid productive work, laborious or not. Since in this conception payment in cash or in kind is not an incentive to perform such work, what encourages people to volunteer? The serious leisure perspective, unlike mainstream economics, can shed considerable light on this question.
