In the biography of William Alfred Higinbotham 1, the abstract should state that he was recruited to the Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1943, not 1945.
This paper is devoted to the impact of Hermann Trautschold’s personality and scientific authority on the young generation of Moscow naturalists of the 1850s-1860s: thermochemist W. Louginine (V.F. ...Luginin) (1834-1911), cristallographer, mineralogist and chemist G. Wyrouboff (G.N. Vyrubov) (1842-1913), botanist A.N. Petunnikov (1842-1919), and geologist and palaeontologist N.P. Vishnyakov (1844-1927). Except Louginine, all of them were graduates of the Imperial Moscow University and began their journey in science at the Imperial Moscow Society of Naturalists (‘MOIP’). The paper describes Trautschold’s activities at MOIP as well as brief biographies, scientific achievements and public activities of his mentees.
Pierre Bourdieu (1930--2002) had an enormous influence on social and
cultural thought in the second half of the 20th century, leaving a mark on fields as
diverse as sociology, anthropology, critical ...theory, education, literary criticism,
art history, and media studies. From his childhood in a rural French village, to his
fieldwork in Algeria, to his ascension to the Chair of Sociology at the Collège de
France, Bourdieu's life followed a trajectory both complex and contradictory. In
this original and eloquent study, Deborah Reed-Danahay offers fresh insights on
Bourdieu's work by drawing on the perspectives of ethnography and autobiography.
Using Bourdieu's own reflections upon his life and career and considering the
totality of his research and writing, this book locates Bourdieu within his French
milieu and within the current state of discussion of Europe and its colonial legacy.
Locating Bourdieu revisits major themes and concepts such as structure and practice,
taste and distinction, habitus, social field, symbolic capital, and symbolic
violence, adding new perspectives and discovering implications of Bourdieu's work
for understanding emotion, social space, and personal narrative. The result is a
work of impressive scholarship and intellectual creativity that will appeal to
scholars, students, and non-specialists alike. New Anthropologies

Nicholas Capaldi's 2004 biography of John Stuart Mill traces the ways in which Mill's many endeavours are related and explores the significance of Mill's contribution to metaphysics, epistemology, ...ethics, social and political philosophy, the philosophy of religion, and the philosophy of education. He shows how Mill was groomed for his life by both his father James Mill, and Jeremy Bentham, the two most prominent philosophical radicals of the early nineteenth century. Yet Mill revolted against this education and developed friendships with both Thomas Carlyle and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who introduced him to Romanticism and political conservatism. A special feature of this biography is the attention devoted to his relationship with Harriet Taylor. No one exerted a greater influence than the woman he was eventually to marry. Nicholas Capaldi reveals just how deep her impact was on Mill's thinking about the emancipation of women.
