This book aims to lay bare those misconceptions and present a scientific and architectural account of these materials, and especially Coade Stone, the most successful of all, which found great favour during the Georgian period. Many examples of Coade Stone cast sculpture still exist and several key examples are presented in context and as case studies . Eleanor Coade’s artificial stone was so good that many observers could not distinguish it from the natural stone it replaced: the growth in replication of the neo-classical statuary and building adornment required in the late Georgian and Regency period was well satisfied by the use of Coade stone. A holistic evaluation of Coade stone artefacts is undertaken whereby the use of analytical data, historical documentation, invoices, company records, impressed marks and expert connoisseurship will establishthe attribution of Coade stone artefacts, some of which are currently in the unknown category. Several new scientific analyses are presented that demonstrate the true nature of high temperature fired ceramic Coade Stone and allow comparison with other forms of artificial stone, such as the cold cured cementitious variations, which eventually replaced it in the Victorian period.Cultural Heritage Science,2366-6234Materials scienceAnalytical chemistryArchaeologyAnthropologyMaterials ScienceAnalytical ChemistryArchaeologyAnthropologyMaterials science.Analytical chemistry.Archaeology.Anthropology.Materials Science.Analytical Chemistry.Archaeology.Anthropology.620.11Edwards Howell G.

The book conveys what is in fact a revolution in the field of law: ordinary citizens (and lawyers) using their standing as citizens in challenging corporate practices and government policies to change not just the way the environment is defended but the way that the public interest is recognized in law. Oliver Houck, a well-known environmental attorney, professor of law, and extraordinary storyteller, vividly depicts the places protected, as well as the litigants who pursued the cases, their strategies, and the judges and other government officials who ruled on them.This book will appeal to upperclass undergraduates, graduate students, and to all citizens interested in protecting the environment.Environmental lawCasesEnvironmental law344.04/6Houck Oliver A879508MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910970454703321Taking back Eden4362993UNINA
