VICTORIAN PHOTOGRAPHS OF FAMOUS MEN AND FAIR WOMEN by JULIA MARGARET CAMERON 120 pages. David R. Godine...
...Museum of Modern Art assembled and commented on by the director of the museum's photography department. There is, naturally, a wide choice of subject. The pictures were taken over a period extending roughly from 1850 to the present; the photographers include the likes of Pioneer Julia Margaret Cameron, Dorothea Lange, Cartier-Bresson, Brassa'i, Robert Doisneau, Ansel Adams, Richard Avedon. Szarkowski's pic-ture-by-picture text ranges from brilliant and supple observations to what can fairly be described as academic twaddle. People who take photography seriously will want the book because, even at his worst...
Since then, other scientists have speculated that this reduced radiation may mean that the nuclear fires at the sun's core are severely banked. Harvard Astrophysicist A.G.W. Cameron and others suspect that the banking effect is caused by a sudden, unexplained mixing of gases in the sun's core, which leads to a brief expansion of the core and a reduction of nuclear reactions. In all, estimates Cameron, it may take some 6,000,000 years for this cycle to run its course-during which the sun's heat and light would be reduced...
...zones with little vegetation were more common. If the banked-fires theory is correct, the relatively cooler recent period, including short-term "ice ages," might indicate that the sun's core is now being mixed, and may return to its normal output in about 4,000,000 years. Cameron estimates that such mixing events may be separated by hundreds of millions of years...
...Alliance and Labour parties have almost equal backing from Catholics and Protestants. Recent Alliance recruits include a number of Ulster's senior political figures, among them Sir Robert Porter, former Minister of Home Affairs, three mayors, five Senators and 70 local councillors. "I came over," explains Senator Millar Cameron, a longtime stalwart of the Protestant-dominated Unionist Party, "partly because I profoundly believe they are doing the right thing for Northern Ireland, partly because it involves the future of my grandchildren and partly because it involves the future of Senator Millar Cameron...
