Research into the geological processes operating on Mars relies on
interpretation of images and other data returned by unmanned
orbiters, probes and landers. Such interpretations are based on our
knowledge of processes occurring on Earth Terrestrial analog
studies therefore play an important role in understanding the
geological features observed on Mars. This 2007 book presents
direct comparisons between locales on Earth and Mars, and contains
contributions from leading planetary geologists to demonstrate the
parallels and differences between these two neighboring planets.
Mars is characterized by a wide range of geological phenomena that
also occur on Earth, including tectonic, volcanic, impact
cratering, eolian, fluvial, glacial and possibly lacustrine and
marine processes. The book provides terrestrial analogs for data
sets from Mars Global Surveyor, Mars Odyssey, Mars Exploration
Rovers and Mars Express, and will therefore be a key reference for
students and researchers of planetary science.

For most people, the U.S. suffrage campaign is encapsulated by
images of iconic nineteenth-century orators like the tightly coifed
Susan B. Anthony or the wimpled Elizabeth Cady Stanton. However, as
Mary Chapman shows, the campaign to secure the vote for U.S. women
was also a modern and print-cultural phenomenon, waged with humor,
creativity, and style. Making Noise, Making News also understands
modern suffragist print culture as a demonstrable link between the
Progressive Era's political campaign for a voice in the public
sphere and Modernism's aesthetic efforts to re-imagine literary
voice. Chapman charts a relationship between modern suffragist
print cultural "noise" and what literary modernists understood by
"making it new," asserting that the experimental tactics of U.S.
suffrage print culture contributed to, and even anticipated, the
formal innovations of U.S. literary modernism. Drawing on
little-known archives and featuring over twenty illustrations,
Making Noise, Making News provides startling documentation of
Marianne Moore's closeted career as a suffrage propagandist, the
persuasive effects of Alice Duer Miller's popular poetry column,
Asian-American author Sui Sin Far's challenge to the racism and
classism of modern suffragism, and Gertrude Stein's midcentury
acknowledgement of intersections between suffrage discourse and
literary modernism.
For most people, the US suffrage campaign is encapsulated in images
of orators such as the tightly coifed Susan B. Anthony, the wimpled
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and others who hectored for women's rights
throughout the nineteenth century. The campaign to secure the vote
for US women, however, was also a modern and print-cultural
phenomenon, waged with humor, style, and creativity. In this
fascinating cultural history, Mary Chapman demonstrates the
importance of the aesthetically innovative print culture produced
by US suffragists in the two decades leading up to the passage of
the 19th Amendment, seven decades after women's rights activists
first met at Seneca Falls. A century before the advent of "social
media", suffragists mobilized the masses [fashioned a "suffragist
spring" through creative forms of propaganda including advocacy
journals, guest-edited mainstream magazines, banners, voiceless
speech placards, publicity stunts, poetry, and fiction. These
propaganda forms made the public sphere much more inclusive even as
they also perpetuated an image of the suffragist New Woman as
native-born, white, and middle-class. Making Noise, Making News
also understands modern suffragist print culture as a demonstrable
link between the Progressive Era's political campaign for a voice
in the public sphere and Modernism's aesthetic efforts to
re-imagine literary voice. Chapman charts a relationship between
modern suffragist print cultural "noise" and what literary
modernists understood by "making it new!", asserting that the
experimental tactics of US suffrage print culture contributed to,
and even anticipated, the formal innovations of US literary
modernism. Drawing on little-known archives and featuring over
twenty visually stunning illustrations, Making Noise, Making News
provides startling documentation of Marianne Moore's closeted
career as a suffrage propagandist, the persuasive effects of
Algonquin Table's Alice Duer Miller's popular poetry column,
Asian-American author Sui Sin Far's challenge to the racism and
classism of modern suffragism, and Gertrude Stein's midcentury
recognition of intersections between suffrage discourse and
literary modernism.
100 Years of Women's Suffrage commemorates the centennial of the
Nineteenth Amendment by bringing together essential scholarship on
the women's suffrage movement and women's voting previously
published by the University of Illinois Press. With an original
introduction by Nancy A. Hewitt, the volume illuminates the lives
and work of key figures while uncovering the endeavors of all
women-across lines of gender, race, class, religion, and
ethnicity-to gain, and use, the vote. Beginning with works that
focus on cultural and political suffrage battles, the chapters then
look past 1920 at how women won, wielded, and continue to fight for
access to the ballot. A curation of important scholarship on a
pivotal historical moment, 100 Years of Women's Suffrage captures
the complex and enduring struggle for fair and equal voting rights.
