Joe LaFlamme (1889-1965) s'est fait conna tre dans les ann es 1920 et 1930 alors qu'il guidait son tra neau tir par des loups au milieu de foules qui se pressaient de tous c t s, tant t dans les rues de Sudbury, de Toronto, Montr al, Boston, Chicago et New York (sur Broadway, rien de moins ). « L'homme aux loups , comme on l'appelait, deviendra plus tard « l'homme aux orignaux . Celui qui savait communiquer avec les animaux sauvages a v cu 30 ans Gogama, petit village du Nord de l'Ontario. Personnage haut en couleur, show man qui aimait impressionner, il aura t tour tour dresseur de chiens, puis dompteur de loups, d'orignaux et d'ours. Petit contrebandier d'alcool, il se sera trouv en cour plus d'une reprise. Mais l'ancien policier de Montr al avait plus d'un tour dans son sac et il aura d fendu, souvent avec succ s, sa propre cause devant les tribunaux. Suzanne F. Charron, au terme d'une recherche exhaustive, a pu reconstituer la vie fascinante de ce personnage extraordinaire. La biographie qui lui est consacr e comprend plus d'une quarantaine de photographies. « I]l est l'incarnation authentique d'une v rit admirable. Le Nouvel-Ontario a t un pays assez sauvagement grand et libre pour fa onner un homme comme lui. - Normand Renaud, pr facier

Joe Pawsey and the Founding of Australian Radio Astronomy

This open access book is a biography of Joseph L. Pawsey. It examines not only his life but the birth and growth of the field of radio astronomy and the state of science itself in twentieth century Australia. The book explains how an isolated continent with limited resources grew to be one of the leaders in the study of radio astronomy and the design of instruments to do so. Pawsey made a name for himself in the international astronomy community within a decade after WWII and coined the term radio astronomy. His most valuable talent was his ability to recruit and support bright young scientists who became the technical and methodological innovators of the era, building new telescopes from the Mills Cross and Chris (Christiansen) Cross to the Parkes radio telescope. The development of aperture synthesis and the controversy surrounding the cosmological interpretation of the first major survey which resulted in the Sydney research group's disagreements withNobel laureate Martin Ryle play major roles in this story. This book also shows the connections among prominent astronomers like Oort, Minkowski, Baade, Struve, famous scientists in the UK such as J.A. Ratcliffe, Edward Appleton and Henry Tizard, and the engineers and physicists in Australia who helped develop the field of radio astronomy. Pawsey was appointed the second Director of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (Green Bank, West Virginia) in October 1961; he died in Sydney at the age of 54 in late November 1962. Upper level students, scientists and historians of astronomy and technology will find the information, much of it from primary sources, relevant to any study of Joseph L. Pawsey or radio astronomy. This open access book includes a Foreword by Woodruff T. Sullivan II.
