The tentative program is now at the website for the 48th Annual Meeting of the Society for the History of Discoveries, in Chicago from November 11-13, 2007. Names of presenters, titles of their talks, and the abstracts too, so you can see NOW what a wonderful number of days await you a bit over four months from now in Chicago should you elect to attend. Speakers include Tony Campbell, Sarah Tyacke, and David Buisseret. And need I remind you of the Nebenzahl Lectures and the Festival of Maps, Chicago? You will want to come early, or stay later. See <http://www.sochistdisc.org/annual_meetings/annual_2007/annual_meeting_2007.htm>http://www.sochistdisc.org/annual_meetings/annual_2007/annual_meeting_2007.htm The Talbott Hotel reports that the special-price room block has been filled. They will accept more reservations, but at whatever the best rate is when the reservation is made. Already 47 persons have registered for the November SHD meeting. This is an especially strong response so many months prior to the meeting. The price rises on October 1. The registration form is at the meeting homepage above.
