Good morning Sara,

Sounds like a great conclusion to a difficult project. 

I’d really like to get the PDF, but I don’t want to download iTunes to read it. 
I have more than enough software on my computer, and I’d prefer to read a PDF 
in Acrobat not in iTunes or some other program. Do you have any suggestions for 
getting the PDF without going through iTunes?


Cheers, John

Subject: FW: CHSI's new publication

Dear Sundial Enthusiasts,

 

It is with great pleasure that I would like to bring to your attention this 
brand new publication from the CHSI. Two years ago we showcased an exhibition 
on time: Time & Time Again: How Science and Culture Shape the Past, Present, 
and Future (http://chsi.harvard.edu/chsi_tta.html). 

 

Since the exhibition opened we had the idea of producing an eCatalog of the 
exhibition. It is with great pride that I announce today the completion of this 
task. 

 

I have to underscore the immense amount of work put into this project by three 
people: Sara Schechner, our Curator, who wrote all the texts and carefully 
edited the volume; Samantha van Gerbig, our photographer & designer, who did 
the photography for the eBook; and Cira Louise Brown, who did all the 
programming, book design, and fixed all the bugs. It was a big endeavor, but 
the result is fantastic.

 

The book is free to download in two versions:

 

An iBook for your iPad (found on iTunes Book): 
https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/time-and-time-again/id977218203?mt=11

 

A pdf for your computer and other devices (found on iTunes U): 
https://itunes.apple.com/us/itunes-u/time-and-time-again/id1008852567?mt=10

 

Please download this book at your convenience and share the news!

 

Again, congratulations to Sara, Sammie, and Cira. All best jfg
