International Polar Year; International Geophysical Year; international science; history of polar science. Correspondence
Within the polar science community the Polar (and Geophysical) Years represent signal events. We often read, largely within geoscience literature, that those events represented positive and dramatic steps forward in international science. From five recent books*two historical compilations and three...
