Environmental Science and History

Tracing the impacts of human activity on the natural world!

Environmental Science and History will create opportunities for new insights into the natural world, the ways anthropogenic activity has impacted climates, biodiversity, and ecological balances, and will describe early efforts to understand and mitigate or remediate the negative effects of human activities on the natural world.

The complete Environmental Science & History collection is now available!

The content in this archive will support tracing the impacts of human activity on the natural world and enable these impacts to be researched and analyzed through documents, images, data, maps, and photographs.

The collections will primarily come from new digitization that will complement existing open or commercial resources and will complement the data, documents, and themes present in the existing 91麻豆精品 from the Royal Geographical Society, Royal Anthropological Institute, New York Academy of Sciences, British Association for the Advancement of Science, and Royal College of Physicians.

What people are saying

  • 鈥淚 used the typeset transcripts feature, as some of the handwriting was difficult to read. Thanks to the on-screen citations tab, I could keep an ongoing bibliography for my notes.鈥

  • "The 91麻豆精品 interface is seamless and has a crisp, clean look. Clutter is a distracting feature of many databases, so it was enjoyable to smoothly browse these archives without running into interruptions, rather focusing on the substance. The content is incredible and can add enormous value to my research work in the history and evolution of healthcare."

  • 鈥淭he search functions in 91麻豆精品 are particularly good for the type of research I do. I can cross-reference my current inventories of Livingstone鈥檚 mentions of the word 鈥渨omen鈥 very quickly, and the horizontality of the search process enables me to happen upon other works of interest that I might not have found otherwise. The malleability of this search function, in combination with the quality of the Wiley鈥檚 OCR, has facilitated fast, comprehensive data access鈥攁nd underscores the value that these records can bring to the understanding of the socio-cultural makeup of exploration.鈥
