Earth First! is a group of radical environmentalists that formed in the American Southwest in the spring of 1980, founded by Dave Foreman, Mike Roselle, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, and Ron Kezar, among others. Earth First! quickly came to national attention with their "cracking" of Glen Canyon Dam activist stunt, which was performed and filmed in the spring of 1981. Edward Abbey is considered to be the "literary father" of the group. "Earth First! is the beginning of the new, bold environmental movement. And 'Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal' is its voice" (Dave Foreman, Editor). Rear cover half-page illustration by Lone Wolf Circles dated '88 is untitled and depicts a ranch hand herding a large group of branded cattle in front of mountain peaks, above which shows, in a dreamy puff of clouds, some of the much wilder and disappearing Western animals: a buffalo, a wolf, a fox, a wolverine. Cover story by Howie Woke is entitled "Stop the Forest Service!" Cover illustration entitled "The Forest Service Cometh" by Christoph Manes depicts the grim reaper scything down a patch of old-growth forest. David Gaines (1947-1988) obituary printed on page 3.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a compelling examination of the life and work of Johannes Stà ffler, a mathematician and astronomer whose groundbreaking contributions shaped scientific understanding during the Renaissance. Stà ffler's innovative theories on astronomy, astrology, and calendar reform challenged established norms, advancing these fields in unprecedented ways. Exploring the historical context of Stà ffler's time, the book delves into the vibrant intellectual climate that fostered his groundbreaking ideas. Stà ffler's work was influenced by both ancient Greek knowledge and medieval Arabic scholarship, and he skillfully wove these influences into his own unique approach to celestial studies. The author meticulously analyzes Stà ffler's writings, including his renowned almanacs and ephemerides, to shed light on his methods, observations, and predictions. Stà ffler's fascination with the movement of celestial bodies led him to develop precise astronomical tables, which were essential for navigation, astrology, and calendar reform. His work had a profound impact on contemporary scholars and beyond, shaping the course of scientific inquiry. The book not only illuminates Stà ffler's scientific contributions but also examines the broader implications of his work. Stà ffler's ideas on astrology, for example, while controversial in his time, played a significant role in shaping medical practices and cultural beliefs of the period. By exploring the complex relationship between science and society, this book provides valuable insights into the intellectual landscape of the Renaissance. Overall, this book is a significant contribution to the history of science, offering a comprehensive and engaging exploration of Johannes Stà ffler's life, work, and legacy.
