Dear Peter
Our Lord saw it good to humble you first; and then in due time, to lift up your head. But the increase of his work which you have hitherto seen you may look upon as only the promise of a shower. If you and your fellow-labourers are zealous for God, you will see greater things than these. Only exhort all that have believed to go on to perfection, and everywhere insist upon both justification and full sanctification as receivable now by simple faith. I am, dear Peter
Your affectionate brother
J Wesle
Refining Nature: The Landscape Architecture of Peter Walker
No full textWhat might one learn from a careful examination of Peter Walker’s built works, developed across a range of conditions and geographies over the past six decades? Structured according to landscape systems (i.e. topography, vegetation, water) rather than chronology or project type, Refining Nature: The Landscape Architecture of Peter Walker includes cross-sectional examinations of the designer’s working with these elements, followed by more in-depth case studies of seminal projects that trace Walker’s significant contributions to contemporary landscape design. Analytical diagrams illustrate design strategies and are paired with site photographs and original design drawings, advancing methods for the shaping of inhabited outdoor environments
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Public houses as multiple retailing: Peter Walker & Son, 1846-1914
No full textThe operation of Liverpool public houses by the company Peter Walker & Son during the period 1846 to 1914 was distinguished by an adherence to their direct management, as opposed to the tenancy model espoused by most brewers in the period. The employment of managers was accompanied by detailed monitoring of performance, the construction of a managerial hierarchy and a focus on the appearance of the houses, features which reinforce the predominantly retail orientation of the company. This distinctiveness is related to broader features of the Liverpool context to argue that an institutionalist approach that gives due weight to both economic and cultural factors is needed in exploring the development of management practice.Public houses, Liverpool, Management history, Brewing,
