She describes how and why these byproducts of ore mining come to be valued by people in various walks of life as scientific specimens, religious offerings, and luxury collectibles. The story of mineral exploration and trade defines a rich and variegated US-Mexican space and sheds new light on this complex relationship. 410 0$aTracking Globalization 606 $aMineral industries$xSocial aspects 606 $aMinerals$xCollection and preservation$zMexico 606 $aMinerals$xCollection and preservation$zUnited States 606 $aRock collectors 607 $aMexico$xCommerce$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xCommerce$zMexico 615 0$aMineral industries$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aMinerals$xCollection and preservation 615 0$aMinerals$xCollection and preservation 615 0$aRock collectors. 676 $a382/.45549972 700 $aFerry$b Elizabeth Emma$01483597 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792012703321 996 $aMinerals, collecting, and value across the U.S.-Mexico border$93789544 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02847nam 2200601 450 001 9910820406403321 005 20170822144325.0 010 $a1-4704-0350-1 035 $a(CKB)3360000000464941 035 $a(EBL)3114427 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000973834 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11529962 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000973834 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10986135 035 $a(PQKB)10384000 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3114427 035 $a(RPAM)12747200 035 $a(PPN)195416430 035 $a(EXLCZ)993360000000464941 100 $a20020418d2002 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aq-difference operators, orthogonal polynomials, and symmetric expansions /$fDouglas Bowman 210 1$aProvidence, Rhode Island :$cAmerican Mathematical Society,$d2002. 215 $a1 online resource (73 p.) 225 1 $aMemoirs of the American Mathematical Society,$x0065-9266 ;$vnumber 757 300 $a"Volume 159, number 757 (fourth of 5 numbers)." 311 $a0-8218-2774-X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $a""Contents""; ""Chapter 1.
