Paperback. Etat : New. The National Park System encompasses geological exposures that preserve globally significant paleobotanical resources. These paleobotanical resources represent a broad temporal, geographic, stratigraphic, and taxonomic distribution and pose a variety of management, research, and curation concerns. In this Element, the authors present a baseline inventory of the Cenozoic paleobotany of the National Park System as a first step in stimulating new research, curation, and outreach projects that utilize these resources. The authors describe the stratigraphic, taxonomic, spatial, and temporal distribution of Cenozoic paleobotanical resources in 74 National Park Units and show that these resources vary widely in their significance and management needs. Their baseline inventory elucidates what resources need intensified management protocols and celebrates the success stories of NPS paleontological resource management that make NPS lands an essential archive of North American paleobotanical history. …

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Public policy is the business end of political science. It is where theory meets practice in the pursuit of the public good. Political scientists approach public policy in myriad ways. Some approach the policy process descriptively, asking how the need for public intervention comes to be perceived, a policy response formulated, enacted, implemented, and, all too often, subverted, perverted, altered, or abandoned. Others approach public policy more prescriptively, offering politically-informed suggestions for how normatively valued goals can and should be pursued, either through particular policies or through alternative processes for making policy. Some offer their advice from the Olympian heights of detached academic observers, others as 'engaged scholars' cum advocates, while still others seek to instil more reflective attitudes among policy practitioners themselves toward their own practices. The Oxford Handbook of Public Policy mines all these traditions, using an innovative structure that responds to the very latest scholarship. Its chapters touch upon institutional and historical sources and analytical methods, how policy is made, how it is evaluated and how it is constrained. In these ways, the Handbook shows how the combined wisdom of political science as a whole can be brought to bear on political attempts to improve the human condition. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Three scarce items, with no other copies traced. All three carry the Club's badge. The 1929 menu is in good condition; the other two items are in fair condition, lightly aged and worn. The two 'Christmas Supper' menus are uniform in layout. Each is printed on an 8vo piece of white card, with the same photograph of 'J. Windsor Burgess as Father Christmas' on one side and the menu on the other. (The menus differ and are dated.) Each menu is wrapped in a grey-paper 8vo bifolium, printed on all four sides. The Menu for 19 December 1927 states on the cover: 'J. H. Brocklehurst, Esq. President, in the Chair'. In the menu of 16 December 1929 the President is A. C. Wilson. The other three pages of the wraps carry the order of the 'Music and Observances', printing the texts of songs including 'The Boar's Head Song' and Walter Emsley's 'Here's to his Health'. The third item is an invitation (1p, 8vo) on card to the 'Complimentary Supper to Prof. F. E. Weiss, D.Sc., F.R.S., F.L.S. (Professor of Botany at The University, Manchester.)', on 5 March 1928. The toast is given by Brocklehurst as President, J. Cuming Walters (from whose collection the material derives) and Councillor C. W. Godbert'.…

Oblong 8vo. 7.5 x 5.75 in. [50 leaves (unnumbered).], on thick black paper stock. Printed mounted title in gilt & black on black, with 49 silver gelatin photographs, sized 4 x 6 in. mounted each leaf, w/ printed text below in gilt on gray slips. Contemporary flexible textured calf Heinn Co. binding (minor rubbing, shelfwear), still an excellent exemplar. This exceptional souvenir photo album visually documents the efforts of the British Columbia government to relieve the overcrowding at the Provincial Hospital for the Insane in New Westminster in the first decade of the 20th Century. In 1904, after appropriating 1000 acres of the traditional lands of the Kwiketlem First Nation peoples, Dr. Charles Doherty focused on clearing over 180 hecatres of the flood plain, constructing dikes, building state-of-the-art farm buildings to provide purpose, therapeutic occupational training and food for the new hospital which would later become Riverview. The Progressive Era movement to reform treatment of the mentally ill was to not only free them from deplorable asylum conditions, which reformers such as Julia Lathrop, Adolf Meyer, and Eleanor Clark Slagle believed only increased otherwise curable mental illnesses, but also provide training to gain employment upon discharge from the hospital. Doherty insisted on paying the patients a small salary to work and live at the farm, and the Holstein herd which began with 22 cows in 1910 grew swiftly, after importing 50 more from New York, and Carnation Farms of Seattle, so that that by the end of 1912, the farm was producing nearly 50,000 gallons of milk, with prize cows capturing top prizes at local farm exhibitions. The photographs open with shot of the gate to Colony Farm, cottages and dining halls for patients, barns and milking stations, stables, hay barn, water tower, silos, corrals, pumping station, and dairy facilities. In addition, there are several photos showing land clearing, burgeoning silage corn fields, nurseries, horse-drawn seeding, cutting hay, oats, and steam threshing.The final photo shows the initial reinforced concrete Essondale Hospital with red brick facades in the final stages of construction and would open later in 1913. One of the photos includes an office calendar dated November, 1912, while two others show the visit of Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught (1850-1942), the first Governor General of Canada to be a member of the British Royal Family, and his wife Princess Louise to the successful Colony Farm Sept. 11, 1912. The Colony farm was expanded in 1918 by another 700 acres, and would continue to thrive through World War II. Unfortunately in 1946, a series of arson fires destroyed most of the documents of the dairy operation, and Colony Farm, and eventually due to budgetary pressures the farm closed in 1983. The halcyon intentions of Manchester and Doherty would later be undone during the 20th Century as budgetary restraints prevented expansion, or proper treatments, so that by 1956, the Essondale Hospital was housing 4306 patients and 2200 staff members in buildings designed for 1800 patients. In addition, medical practices of the time ranged from electroshock therapy and forced sterilization, and would eventually be closed in 1992 as the de-institutionalization movement gained favor. Moore (1887-1963) launched his photographic career with Byron Harmon in Banff, Alberta, and by 1912 was established in Vancouver, specializing in panoramic photographs after 1913, and later forming a partnership with Wilfred F. McConnell buying the Canadian Photo Co. He retired from the firm in 1953. We could find no similar souvenir albums in institutional holdings, but some are retained as part of the Riverview Hospital Historical Society Collection, Glass Plate Negatives, Coquitlam Archives (2022); Sam Wiebe, How a Century-Old Vancouver Mental Hospital Became a Film Industry Hot Spot, Montecristo Magazine (2021); History of Colony Farm, Colony Farm Community Gardens (2022).…
