Pioneering Women in American Mathematics
"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.

Why I Took You Back
Ciara never gave up. And victory is what she found. The love within her made her special. She kept pushing her way through all of her struggels. Sometime we can`t see the value in a person until its to late. We walk by people everyday and we may never know their stories. Broken hearts on the inside and still keeping a smile on the out side for the world to see. Ciara saw the value in everyone. We must look at others and see the value within them. Values given to them by our creator. Ciara believe that love must always conqure hate. An abundance of love is what the universe needs. And because of that love, there will be peace within the universe. Ciara was so full of love. Its ashame her husband did not her value. With his eyes wide open, he did not see that his wife was a blessing from God. And even when he did wrong to her, she still forgave him. Love made Ciara special. And she was loved by many.

Humboldt State University
Perched high atop a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the northernmost campus of the California State University system is celebrating its centennial. The natural environment of forests and oceans provide the perfect setting for hands-on research in forestry, oceanography, wildlife, natural resources, environmental science and resource engineering, and fisheries biology. Begun as a normal school for teacher education, it still provides a full range of credential programs and more than 40 majors for undergraduate and master's degrees in 14 areas, and it is a regional center for the arts. The university is at the forefront of studies on sustainability, green living, and environmental responsibility.
