About this title

Synopsis

A historical view of Michigan science, your guide to early 20th‑century research and its sharing. This volume compiles the Third Report of the Michigan Academy of Science, detailing the winter meetings, the academy’s constitution, and the four science sections that shaped its work in zoology, botany, sanitary science, and agriculture. It also presents an engaging account of how the academy organized, funded, and distributed scientific knowledge to scholars and libraries alike.

The book opens with the story of the academy’s founding, its constitutional framework, and the role of the Council in guiding publications. It includes the full constitution, membership rules, officer duties, and the organizational history that led to a four‑section structure by 1901. You’ll also find the historical note on state support and the act that enabled broader distribution of scientific reports. The core includes abstracts and selections from the 1901 meeting, covering topics in biology, botany, ecology, and agricultural science, as well as lists of members and index materials.

What you’ll experience
- An overview of the academy’s origins, structure, and governance
- A look at how scientific research and knowledge were shared via government support and published reports
- Abstracts and summaries from the 1901 meeting across several science areas
- Historical context, including membership, officer roles, and the publication program

Ideal for readers of early scientific societies, state history, and the development of knowledge diffusion in the United States.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
