This richly illustrated volume not only documents those aspects of U.S. biodiversity that are particularly noteworthy, but also considers how species and ecosystems are faring, what is threatening them, and what is needed to protect the nation's remaining natural inheritance. 410 0$aOxford scholarship online. 606 $aBiodiversity conservation$zUnited States 606 $aConservation of natural resources$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBiodiversity conservation 615 0$aConservation of natural resources 676 $a333.950973 676 $a333.95160973 701 $aAdams$b Jonathan S$0931975 701 $aKutner$b Lynn S$0931976 701 $aStein$b Bruce A.$f1955-$0931977 712 02$aAssociation for Biodiversity Information. 712 02$aNature Conservancy (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453825603321 996 $aPrecious heritage$92096264 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02774nam 22005652 450 001 9910780074703321 005 20160418124252.0 010 $a0-511-15652-9 010 $a0-511-61332-6 010 $a0-511-01965-3 035 $a(CKB)111056485648262 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000198468 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11188022 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000198468 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10183609 035 $a(PQKB)10388468 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9780511613326 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3004519 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3004519 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10005053 035 $a(OCoLC)923616444 035 $a(PPN)26134773X 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111056485648262 100 $a20141103d2001|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aMary Somerville $escience, illumination, and the female mind /$fKathryn A.

She achieved this status through careful management of her gender identity and by creating rich, readable, and authoritative accounts of science that were rhetorically compelling, aesthetically satisfying, and valuable to the scientific community in the UK and abroad. This biography offers detailed analysis of the underlying patterns, themes, and rhetorical strategies of her major works and argues that Somerville employed a transcendent feminine style that retained the advantages but transcended the limitations usually associated with women's ways of knowing. The book advocates a new narrative for women's participation in science and demonstrates the many ways that gender relates to science and science functions in culture. 410 0$aCambridge science biographies. 606 $aWomen scientists$zGreat Britain$vBiography 615 0$aWomen scientists 676 $a500.2/092 700 $aNeeley$b Kathryn A$g(Kathryn Angelyn),$f1954-$01518013 701 $aSomerville$b Mary$f1780-1872.$0270654 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780074703321 996 $aMary Somerville$93755341 997 $aUNINA
