A World Made for Money
A ;spirited and incisive survey of economic geography, A World Made for Money begins with the author stopped at a red light in Norman, Oklahoma. Observing the landscape of drugstores and banks, and for that matter the stoplight and roads themselves, Bret Wallach observes, "Everything I see has been built to make money" or, at the very least, to facilitate making money. This, he argues, is a global phenomenon that nonetheless has occurred only within the past hundred years or so. Although guidebooks and culture brokers often disparage these landscapes of commerce, Wallach--recipient of a MacArthur "genius grant"--argues that we would do well to pay them close attention.

The Past, The Present and To Come
I am an eighty-four-year old man with a great deal of history in my background. I left high school in tenth grade to sail on merchant ships during WWII. I worked my way through the engineering department from Fireman to Third Engineer. My brother was probably the youngest commander in the U.S. Merchant Marine. He was my mentor. After the war ended, I went back to high school and on to teachers college where I received my BS in Education with a major in mathematics. I taught math for one year before taking a job at a major aerospace company. I attended Drexel Institute of Technology for three years. I accepted an engineering position at a major California Aerospace company. I then transferred...
One Small Step
Purdue University has played a leading role in providing the engineers who designed, built, tested, and flew the many aircraft and spacecraft that so changed human progress during the 20th century. It is estimated that Purdue has awarded 6% of all BS degrees in aerospace engineering, and 7% of all PhDs in the United States during the past 65 years. The University's alumni have led significant advances in research and development of aerospace technology, have headed major aerospace corporations and government agencies, and have established an amazing record for exploration of space. More than one third of all US manned space flights have had at least one crew member who was a Purdue engineering graduate (including the first and last men to step foot on the moon). The School of Aeronautics & Astronautics was founded as a separate school within the College of Engineering at Purdue University in 1945. The first edition of this book was published in 1995, at the time of the school's 50th anniversary. This corrected and expanded second edition brings the school's illustrious history up to date, and looks to Purdue's future in the sky and in space.
