van verering naar waardering Vergaarde roem Na zijn dood in 1789 werd de Nederlandse medicus en naturalist' Petrus Camper herdacht in zittingen van drie vermaarde wetenschappelijke genootschappen, alle drie gevestigd te Parijs. De drie redenaars genoten al evenveel aanzien als hun gehoor. De sprekers waren respectievelijk de chirurg Antoine Louis voor de Aca - mie royale de chirurgie, de medicus Félix Vicq d'Azyr voor de Société royale de médecine en tenslotte de markies de Condorcet voor de leden van de Académie des sciences. Een dergelijke multipele eer is nooit een andere Nederlandse wet- schapper ten deel gevallen. Of Camper ook plechtig herdacht is in de talrijke andere geleerde genootsch- pen waarvan hij lid was, is niet gedocumenteerd. In ieder geval waren er vele van dergelijke wetenschappelijke instellingen die hem in de loop der jaren tot het l- maatschap hadden uitgenodigd. Deze waren wijd en zijd verspreid over Europa: van Edinburgh tot Sint Petersburg en van Londen tot Berlijn. Camper had der- lijke vererende uitnodigingen vrijwel steeds gretig aangenomen. Slechts tw- maal weigerde hij een hem aangeboden erelidmaatschap. Dat betrof in de eerste plaats de Linnean Society of London vanwege fundamentele bezwaren tegen de classificatie van het dieren- en plantenrijk, zoals die was opgesteld door Linnaeus.

Euler was not only by far the most productive mathematician in the history of mankind, but also one of the greatest scholars of all time. He attained, like only a few scholars, a degree of popularity and fame which may well be compared with that of Galilei, Newton, or Einstein. Moreover he was a cosmopolitan in the truest sense of the word; he lived during his first twenty years in Basel, was active altogether for more than thirty years in Petersburg and for a quarter of a century in Berlin. Leonhard Euler’s unusually rich life and broadly diversified activity in the immediate vicinity of important personalities which have made history, may well justify an exposition. This book is based in part on unpublished sources and comes right out of the current research on Euler. It is entirely free of formulae as it has been written for a broad audience with interests in the history of culture and science.

"The man and his work are given an appreciative investigation in Garrett Eckbo: Modern Landscapes for Living a detailed and elegant study that features more than sixty of his projects - many published here for the first time. Marc Treib examines the aesthetic formation of Eckbo's manner; and by implication, the broader field of landscape architecture since the 1930's. Dorothee Imbert writes of Eckbo's social vision, noting his belief that ultimately landscape design is "the arrangement of environments for people." The book includes an afterword by Garrett Eckbo, a memoir by photographer Julius Shulman, a biographical and professional chronology, and a bibliography of publications by and about the landscape architect and his contemporaries."--Jacket.
