Every day, thousands of meteorologists observe and record measurements at more than 10,000 weather stations on land and sea throughout the world.

Pam Heinselman is a professor and Research Scientist with the National Severe Storms Lab.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This nonfiction STEM title serves as a bridge between girls’ interests and their potential careers in meteorology by telling captivating stories about real-life meteorologists and the many ways meteorology benefits society. Meteorology isn’t just about storm tracking, it’s about how the atmosphere affects the earth in the past, present, and future. Advances in meteorology are strongly connected with developments in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

A few late swimmers, reluctant to depart, dotted those waters whose touch is like the caress of a lover. On the springboard of the nearest float a slim brown girl poised for one delectable instant.

Strongly rhythmic music plays, couples dance, dress is casual and revealing. Nearly everyone is drinking--beer or wine, gin or whiskey--and the distinct scent of marijuana hangs in the air. The foregoing scene might have happened in any of the vice districts inAmerica at the turn of the century, such as Storyville in New Orleans or the Barbary Coast in San Francisco. But it might have occurred just as easily today, not in an underworld dive, but in the living rooms of ordinary people, in cities large and small all around America. What was once relegatedto the red light district is now common on Main Street. In this provocative and highly original look at America, James Lincoln Collier asks a simple question: how did we get from Storyville to Main Street? How did the United States turn from a social code in which self-restraint was a cardinal virtue to one in which self-gratification was the norm?To answer this question, he traces the gradual decline of Victorian values and the concomitant rise of selfishness in our country, in a book filled with colorful history: the early dance crazes (the Fox Trot, the Grizzly Bear, the Texas Tommy); Irene and Vernon Castle, whose austere grace drainedthe sexuality out of dancing and made it acceptable to middle class America; the great radio shows of the 1930s (Amos 'n' Andy, Charlie Chan, The Shadow); and the great brothels of the Victorian age. But we also see the isolation of life in big cities, the great influx of immigrants, and the spreadof industrialization. Collier shows that with the unprecedented blocks of free time created by industrialization, the entertainment industry mushroomed, and soon not only immigrants but the middle class began to drink and dance in public, and women began to smoke and dress in sexually revealingclothes. Indeed, by the late 1920s, the majority of Americans were devoted to movies, popular music, dancing, and the entertainment industry in
