Kohler.Knowing Global Environments brings together nine leading scholars whose work spans a variety of environmental and field sciences, including archaeology, agriculture, botany, climatology, ecology, evolutionary biology, oceanography, ornithology, and tidology. Collectively their essays explore the history of the field sciences, through the lens of place, practice, and the production of scientific knowledge, with a wide-ranging perspective extending outwards from the local to regional, national, imperial, and global scales. The book also shows what the history of the field sciences can contribute to environmental history-especially how knowledge in the field sciences has intersected with changing environments-and addresses key present-day problems related to sustainability, such as global climate, biodiversity, oceans, and more. Contributors to Knowing Global Environments reveal how the field sciences have interacted with practical economic activities, such as forestry, agriculture, and tourism, as well as how the public has been involved in the field sciences, as field assistants, students, and local collaborators.Studies in modern science, technology, and the environment.ScienceFieldworkHistoryScienceFieldworkHistory.507.2/3Vetter Jeremy, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1497677Vetter Jeremy1975-1151316MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789740503321Knowing global environments3722912UNINA01876nam 2200541 450 991080700050332120230807213501.01-61376-362-X(CKB)3720000000062053(EBL)4533233(SSID)ssj0001609744(PQKBManifestationID)16320317(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001609744(PQKBWorkID)12514879(PQKB)10385521(MiAaPQ)EBC4533233(OCoLC)928807847(MdBmJHUP)muse42435(Au-PeEL)EBL4533233(CaPaEBR)ebr11214699(EXLCZ)99372000000006205320160613h20152015 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrPatient expectations how economics, religion, and malpractice shaped therapeutics in early America /Catherine L.
