    Paperback. Condition: New. A new edition of the groundbreaking 1959 publication created in collaboration with the Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs. This beautiful new edition of the histories and laws of the Gitanyow (literally "people of the small/narrow place," once called the Kitwancool in settler accounts), as recounted to museum curator Wilson Duff in 1958, includes a new foreword by Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs and updated photographs while preserving the original text. Until the mid-twentieth century, the village of Kitwancool (now Gitanyow) was only accessible to outsiders by trail. This inaccessibility of territory protected a deeply independent spirit and unique legal system, recorded here as part of an agreement that allowed for the removal of Gitanyow totem poles to the Royal BC Museum for preservation. The complete histories of the Gitanyow, told in their own words, were also translated and recorded here as part of the same agreement. This publication not only captures the histories, territories, and laws of the Gityanow, but also a significant moment in time for settler-Indigenous relations, and the origin story for totem poles still standing at the Royal BC Museum today. Histories, Territories and Laws of the Kitwancool is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand Gitanyow society and belief.

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The essays in this volume are connected with the main areas of Thomas A. Goudge's research: Peirce studies and the philosophy of science, especially the philosophy of biology. There are two sections, each opened with an essay on Goudge's contribution to the field. The first section deals with C.S. Peirce. Essays examine major features of his thought: his proof of pragmatism, his logic of relations, his semiotics, his theory of truth, his philosophy of induction, and his Scotist metaphysics of individuals. Other essays in this group relate pragmatism and pragmaticism to the work of others, in particular Collingwood, Descartes, and James and Santayana. Each involves substantial dialogue with Peirce, and a philosophical evaluation of his work and the work of others. The second is concerned with the philosophy of science. Some of the essays study the nature of scientific explanation: whether there is a logic of discovery, and whether life and teleology could be fitted into the mechanistic view of the universe that arose in the early modern period of philosophy. Various problems specifically concerning the synthetic theory of evolution are also discussed: for example, is it a theory somehow intrinsically different in kind from theories in physics Does it yield special forms of explanation How is it related to modern genetic theory Other essays deal with problems arising out of an evolutionary view of life and man: for example, emergence, the place of consciousness in nature, man's knowledge of necessary truths. This is an important collection for those working in Peirce studies or the philosophy of biology, and a substantial contribution to the history of Canadian philosophy.

    Unpaged - [1-10], [foldout color cruise map], [11-128], [three illustrated plates]. Hardcover: H 27.25cm x L 21.5cm. Blue cloth rubbed; scuffing/fraying at spine ends and board corners; front board pictorial b/w centerpiece paste-on illustration of USS Alabama by W. Stephenson. B/w photograph illustrated endpapers toned; laid-in at front endpapers are 1987 newspaper clipping regarding the USS Alabama and scarce brochure "Commissiong Dinner U.S.S. Alabama August 16, 1942" (stains and soiling to brochure covers); interior leaves remain mostly clean and without crew signatures/inscriptions. Binding unfortunately shaken between pages [2]-[3] with old failed tape reinforcement; several other lesser stress points. Interior illustrations of aforementioned color cruise map and three b/w plate sketches of BB-60 (a larger format sketch of the front board's paste-on) plus two prior namesakes - WWI era BB-8 and Civil War Confederate raider - all credited to W.S. Stephenson too. B/w photographs throughout; uncredited cartoon-style illustrations amongst ship personnel division group photos; African-American crew members shamefully segregated to last crew photo on page [124]. Only a good copy at best but a rather scarce WWII cruisebook made all the more collectible with ship's commissioning dinner brochure. Bibliographical references: Mawdsley "Cruise Books of the United States Navy in World War II; A Bibliography"; Dornbusch 1950 - #839; Smith - #7051.
