From Accounting To Negative Numbers: A Signal Contribution Of Medieval India To Mathematics, Richard Mattessich Jan 1998

From Accounting To Negative Numbers: A Signal Contribution Of Medieval India To Mathematics, Richard Mattessich

Accounting Historians Journal

The major object of this paper is to present evidence for arguing that the highly developed Hindu accounting tradition, beginning with Kautilya's Arthasastra about 300 b.c., or even earlier, may have had a part in the more receptive attitude of medieval Indian mathematicians, compared to Europeans, in accepting negative numbers. The Hindus justified this attitude by arguing that having a debt is the inverse of possessing an asset; thus, attributing a negative number to a debt but a positive one to an asset. To advance the argument, the paper shows that the accounting aspect of debt is at least as …

Description, Objectivity, And A Robust Pluralism: A Reply To Fleischman And Tyson; Point/Counterpoint, Terry K. Sheldahl Jan 1998

Description, Objectivity, And A Robust Pluralism: A Reply To Fleischman And Tyson; Point/Counterpoint, Terry K. Sheldahl

Accounting Historians Journal

If more than welcome in intent, Fleischman and Tyson's article "Archival Researchers: An Endangered Species?" [1997] prompted for me another question, "With friends like this, . . . ?." It is a sad commentary on our field if their contributions are so apt to be "minimalized" that it may "embarras[s]" mainly descriptive accounting historians [Fleischman and Tyson (F&T), 1997, pp. 102, 102 fn.] to be so cited. It is probably not coincidental that other accounting scholars are likely to deem historical study more intellectual the more it is "interpretive" in a mode intellectualist. In any case, as an unembarrassed predominantly …

Solid Waste Management And The Need For Effective Public Participation, Catherine A. Solheim, Charles E. Faupel, Conner Bailey Dec 1997

Solid Waste Management And The Need For Effective Public Participation, Catherine A. Solheim, Charles E. Faupel, Conner Bailey

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

Recent changes in technical requirements for landfill design, mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, have led to closing the majority of solid waste landfills in the United States. Efforts to site new landfills have elicited widespread opposition. Based on eight case studies in Alabama, we identify three themes behind this opposition: threats to quality of life, potentially harmful economic impacts, and frustration over representational issues in the process involved in selecting the proposed solid waste facility. These concerns mirror much of the literature on public opposition to landfills and other facilities which pose similar threats to the environment and …

Social And Demographic Influences On Environmental Attitudes, Marybe Mcmillan, Thomas J. Hoban, William B. Clifford, Margaret R. Brant Dec 1997

Social And Demographic Influences On Environmental Attitudes, Marybe Mcmillan, Thomas J. Hoban, William B. Clifford, Margaret R. Brant

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

Sociologists have studied environmental attitudes for over two decades. Much of this research has sought to determine what factors are related to these attitudes. Past research has shown that certain social and demographic variables tend to have a positive influence on environmentalism. One of the more valid and reliable indicators of environmentalism is the 12-item attitude scale known as the New Environmental Paradigm (NEP). That scale has been shown to consist of three sub-scales. This paper extends previous research by examining the relative influence of six independent variables (age, gender, race, education, income, and residence) on each of the sub-scales …

Archaeological Investigations Of The 15 Acre Tract For The Proposed Construction Of The Tennessee Valley Authority Customer Service Center, City Of Tupelo, Lee County, Mississippi, Michael James Wild

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This project was undertaken in order to provide cultural resource clearance for fifteen acres of land for the proposed construction of the Tennessee Valley Authority's Customer Service Center in the City of Tupelo, Lee County, Mississippi. The fifteen acres were divided into sections, and after each section was granted cultural resource clearance, construction was allowed to begin while other sections were being investigated. Four early historic midden pits were discovered during the investigations. The cultural materials recovered were analyzed and described. The modern trash and historic and early historic cultural materials recovered revealed that the project area had been in …
