Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cruise of the Brooklyn: A Journal of the Principal Events of a Three Years' Cruise in the U. S, Flag-Ship Brooklyn, in the South Atlantic Station Extending South of the Equator From Cape Horn East to the Limits in the Indian Ocean on the Seventieth Meridian of East Longitude The interesting reception of Neptune on board the U.S.S."Brooklyn," upon crossing the equator, created a demand for a periodical on board. The author was selected to conduct the journal, and the officers cordially gave him their assistance, so that the Brooklyn Eagle became a regular feature of the ship. Captain A. W.Weaver gave his permission, and the sum of five cents per copy was charged, in order to defray expenses for paper, ink, and replenishing the type, and also to pay the printer, C.M. Cartwright, for his labor during his leisure hours. The writer of any article was also allowed as many copies of the paper as he might desire for his own gratification. The present volume is, with a few additions, taken from the Brooklyn Eagle, and, with the illustrations of the principal places visited during a cruise in comparatively unfrequented waters, may prove interesting to the general public. "The History of the River Plate Republics" was published in a continued series of the Brooklyn Eagle, and the author intends to complete that work and publish it in a separate volume. The author takes advantage of the opportunity to acknowledge his indebtedness to the officers of the "Brooklyn" for their support and co-operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the result of a study in which the authors identified all of the American women who earned PhD's in mathematics before 1940, and collected extensive biographical and bibliographical information about each of them. By reconstructing as complete a picture as possible of this group of women, Green and LaDuke reveal insights into the larger scientific and cultural communities in which they lived and worked." "The book contains an extended introductory essay, as well as biographical entries for each of the 228 women in the study. The authors examine family backgrounds, education, careers, and other professional activities. They show that there were many more women earning PhD's in mathematics before 1940 than is commonly thought." "The material will be of interest to researchers, teachers, and students in mathematics, history of mathematics, history of science, women's studies, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
