Excerpt from More Natural History Essays The kind reception accorded by both Press and public to my previous book of Natural History Essays has encouraged the preparation of the present work as a com panion volume. Written on Similar lines, it differs from its predecessor in treating of mammalian types selected from the fauna of the world rather than from that of Africa only, although examples of the latter also occupy a place in its pages graham renshaw.

Excerpt from Cultures and Institutions of Natural History: Essays in the History and Philosophy of Science This volume consists mainly of papers delivered at two meetings cosponsored by the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale in Milan and the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. The first, on the Culture of Natural History, was held in Milan, November l4-l 6, I996. The second, on Institutions of Natural History, was held in San Francisco, October 5 - 7, 1998. They followed two earlier conferences on Biology as History (pinna and Ghiselin I996; Ghiselin and Pinna I996) likewise held in Milan and San Francisco. We intend to continue the series of meetings and have publications based on them in commemoration of the Academy's sesquicentennial in 2003. The emphasis here is mainly upon natural history museums and the kind of science that goes on in them. Although the essays were originally written to stand by themselves, when arranged in chronological order they suggest a common theme. To paraphrase Darwin, the culture and institutions of natural history have been, and are being, evolved. They have adapted to local circumstances, diversified, and sometimes even progressed. We may hope that the future holds more than just retrogression and extinction in store. Read as case studies the essays provide valuable insights into not just how, but why, the institutions have come into being and subsequently been transformed. Previous generations had quite different ideas than we do about how a collection of naturalia is supposed to function and how it should be organized. And there were con icting goals and serious disputes about policy, much as there are today. Often, though not always, the institutions turn out to be very different from what had been envisioned by their founders.

Celebrate the tradition of literary naturalists and writers who embrace the natural world as the setting for some of our most euphoric and serious experiences. These books map the intimate connections between the human and the natural world. Literary naturalists transcend political boundaries, social concerns, and historical milieus; they speak for what Henry Beston called the "other nations" of the planet. Their message acquires more weight and urgency as wild places become increasingly scarce.

Excerpt from Final Natural History Essays The present volume completes a series of sixty Essays dealing with typical examples of the class Mammalia. In this work, as in its predecessors, the subject has throughout been viewed from the combined standpoint of the zoologist and the historian; the photographs are selected from a series of over five hundred negatives taken by the author. The opportunity is here taken of thanking the Press for many long and most encouraging notices of previous studies, and the public for their kind reception of former volumes both at home and abroad.

But he added, that there were many Pines of a much larger size. It is likely, however, that the trees in the American woods in general, are more remarkable for their great height, than for the grossness of their trunk.
