Mark Morrisson - Modern Alchemy; Occultism and the Emergence of Atomic Theory (2007).jpg

Alchemists are generally held to be the quirky forefathers of science, blending occultism with metaphysical pursuits. Although many were intelligent and well-intentioned thinkers, the oft-cited goals of alchemy paint these antiquated experiments as wizardry, not scientific investigation. Whether seeking to produce a miraculous panacea or struggling to transmute lead into gold, the alchemists radical goals held little relevance to consequent scientific pursuits. Thus, the temptation is to view the transition from alchemy to modern science as one that discarded fantastic ideas about philosophers stones and magic potions in exchange for modest yet steady results. It has been less noted, however, that the birth of atomic science actually coincided with an efflorescence of occultism and esoteric religion that attached deep significance to questions about the nature of matter and energy.
Mark Morrisson challenges the widespread dismissal of alchemy as a largely insignificant historical footnote to science by prying into the revival of alchemy and its influence on the emerging subatomic sciences of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.Morrisson demonstrates its surprising influence on the emerging subatomic sciences of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Specifically, Morrisson examines the resurfacing of occult circles during this time period and how their interest in alchemical tropes had a substantial and traceable impact upon the science of the day. Modern Alchemy chronicles several encounters between occult conceptions of alchemy and the new science, describing how academic chemists, inspired by the alchemy revival, attempted to transmute the elements; to make gold.
Examining scientists publications, correspondence, talks, and laboratory notebooks as well as the writings of occultists, alchemical tomes, and science-fiction stories, he argues that during the birth of modern nuclear physics, the trajectories of science and occultism---so often considered antithetical---briefly merged.

Michael Rice - Swifter than the Arrow; The Golden Hunting Hounds of Ancient Egypt (2006).jpg

Swifter than the Arrow explores a little-known aspect of life in Ancient Egypt, celebrating the Egyptians as the first known civilisation to have formed the special bond with the dog that persists today as the most remarkable and enduring of human-animal relationships. Five thousand years ago the Egyptians selected and bred hounds for the chase and as the loved companions of both the ruling classes and of less exalted folk. For more than twenty-five centuries they kept the breed true, a remarkable achievement to be counted alongside the development of stone architecture and the building of the pyramids, the invention of hieroglyphs, the creation of kingship and of the first nation-state in the world. Swifter than the Arrow also examines the evidence that hounds living today -- most notably modern breeds such as the so-called "Pharaoh Hound" -- are directly descended from the Egyptian hound. This unique book throws fresh light on our understanding of ancient Egypt while providing a completely fresh insight into the development of mankind's remarkable bond with the domesticated dog.

Louis D. Rubin, Jr. - The Summer the Archduke Died ; Essays on Wars and Warriors (2008).jpg

Louis D. Rubin Jr. is one of the biggest — biggest — names in Southern literature. He taught at Johns Hopkins, Hollins College and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he retired as University Distinguished Professor of English.

Less known is Rubin’s role as a highly competent editor of military history. At Algonquin, he supervised the release of some first-rate books, such as Rod Paschall’s The Defeat of Imperial Germany. Now, in The Summer the Archduke Died, Rubin ponders a number of books “On Wars and Warriors,” and as always, his ruminations prove fascinating.Rubin is nothing if not meticulous. Though he belittles his own experience (an enlisted veteran of “The Good War,” he was never shipped overseas), he shows considerable courage and is not above calling even the great John Keegan to task when the great British war historian occasionally nods.

Rubin covers a great deal of ground, but his focus lies on World War I — a war, he argued, that never got the attention it deserved. Although it produced great literature from Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms to Robert Graves Goodbye to All That to the poetry of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, the historians have generally shied away. The slaughter is horrid to contemplate. (One memorial at St. Cyr, the French equivalent of West Point, simply notes “The Class of 1914″ — apparently, there were not enough survivors to note.) It was also a war of stagnation, as increased firepower forced the armies into trenches. There was none of the derring-do of a Rommel or a Patton, of paratroop landings or daring maneuver.

Rubin, however, argues that World War II, in effect was simply the First World War resumed after a time-out. He argues that the generals were not the doddering old butchers they’re often stereotyped as being (although it is hard, extremely hard, to acquit someone as cold-blooded as Douglas Haig entirely). In fact, the great innovations of World War II — the evolution of the tank, the dominating role of air power — had their start in the trenches late in the First War, as generals tried anything, anything to break the stalemate. Had the conflict of 1914-18 dragged on another year — and it very nearly did — some of these might have flowered sooner.

Reviewing contemporary texts, Rubin deftly catches the challenge and frustration of trying to catch the fog of war in a bottle — of seeing things both from the perspective of a grunt on a line and a general well in the rear. (The First War removed the great commanders from the front lines, but did not give them the tools for command control, such as radio, that would serve the World War II commanders well.)

All History - Robert B. Bruce, Iain Dickie, Kevin Kiley, Michael F... 1792-1815 Equipment, Combat Skills, and Tactics 2008.jpg

I've read, over the years, a few books on Napoleon and the wars he fought. In many ways, this book is an essential primer, or at least a very useful tool for the reader who's not an expert on Napoleon, but who nonetheless wishes to know something about warfare during the era, at a nuts-and-bolts level. The book is divided into five chapters, covering infantry; cavalry; command and control; artillery, engineers and sieges; and naval warfare. Each of these chapters is lavishly illustrated with pictures, both color plates and black and white drawings. Each chapter includes a discussion of several battles, which illustrate what the text is saying. For instance, the chapter on artillery tactics includes several pages on the Battle of Friedland, where the French artillery literally blasted a hole in the middle of the Russian front. Each of these accounts of a battle is accompanied by a two-page 3D map of the battlefield showing the maneuvers of the units involved. .....

All History - Michael F. Pavkovic, Christer Jorgensen, Rob S. Rice ...- AD 1763 Equipment, Combat Skills, and Tactics 2006.jpg

When gunpowder replaced steel as the weapon of choice, soldiers had to adapt or die. In Fighting Techniques of the Early Modern World, five military experts explore the tactics and strategy required to win battles with the technology available, and describe how the development of new weapons changed the face of warfare. Using specially-commissioned color and black and white artworks to illustrate the battles, equipment and tactics of the era, Fighting Techniques of the Early Modern World shows in detail the methods by which armies gained and lost ascendency on the battlefield.

Willie Thompson - What Happened to History (2000).jpg

This original study explores the development of the postmodern turn in history, brought on by the social, political and cultural changes of the 1970s and 1980s. Challenging notions of certainty and objectivity, postmodernism has questioned traditional models and methods in studying history. A timely intervention in an increasingly contentious area, this book evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of postmodern history. Beginning with a brief account of historiography as an academic discipline, with its origins in the 'scientific historiography' of the nineteenth century, Willie Thompson charts the growth and development of the historical method in the twentieth century. He examines the impact of Marxist historiography, particularly in Britain and the United States, and the emergence of new approaches to history exemplified by the work of E.P. Thompson and others. In addition, Thompson assesses the impact of feminist, black and minority history.

Donald R. Prothero - Bringing Fossils To Life; An Introduction To Paleobiology (2004).jpg

This is the first text to combine both paleontology and paleobiology. Traditional textbooks treat these separately, despite the recent trend to combine them in teaching. It bridges the gap between purely theoretical paleobiology and purely descriptive invertebrate paleontology books. The text is targeted at undergraduate geology and biology majors, with the emphasis on organisms, rather than dead objects to be described and catalogued. Current ideas from modern biology, ecology, population genetics, and many other concepts will be applied to the study of the fossil record.

Paula J. Byrne - Criminal Law and Colonial Subje ct; New South Wales, 1810-1830 (1993).jpg

This book explores the relationship of a colonial people with English law and looks at the way in which the practice of law developed among the ordinary population. Paula Jane Byrne traces the boundaries among property, sexuality and violence, drawing from court records, dispositions and proceedings. She asks: What did ordinary people understand by guilt, suspicion, evidence and the term "offense"? She illuminates the values and beliefs of the emerging colonial consciousness and the complexity of power relations in the colony. The book reconstructs the legal process with great tetail and richness and is able to evoke the everyday lives of people in the colonial NSW.

Victor Katz, Robin Wilson - Sherlock Holmes in Bab ylon and Other Tales of Mathematical History (2004 ).jpg

This book is a collection of 44 articles on the history of mathematics, published in MAA journals over the past 100 years. Covering a span of almost 4000 years, from the ancient Babylonians to the eighteenth century, it chronicles the enormous changes in mathematical thinking over this time, as viewed by distinguished historians of mathematics from the past (Florian Cajori, Max Dehn, David Eugene Smith, Julian Lowell Coolidge and Carl Boyer) and the present.

Each of the four sections of the book (Ancient Mathematics, Medieval and Renaissance Mathematics, The Seventeenth Century, The Eighteenth Century) is preceded by a Foreword, in which the articles are put into historical context, and followed by an Afterword, in which they are reviewed in the light of current historical scholarship. In more than one case, two articles on the same topic are included, to show how knowledge and vies about the topic changed over the years.

This book will be enjoyed by anyone interested in mathematics and its history – and in particular by mathematics teachers at secondary, college, and university level.
