Portland, OR: Research Station,. Very Good. 2005. Soft Cover. Portland, OR : U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station, [2005]. 53 pages, pictorial wrappers, 8-1/2 by 11 inches, very good. Description: Because there is a lack of innovation research in the forest products industry and innovative activities in the industry are not well documented, this study attempted to fill that void. The objectives of this study were to understand the process and definition of innovation in the forest products industry, identify the constraints on innovative activities, identify resources that would improve innovation in forest products companies, compare the innovation environments in Alaska and Oregon, and provide a benchmark study for innovation in the forest products industry. This study revealed that there are several aspects of innovation in the forest products industry. In addition, the innovation process is a combination of semiformal development stages, trial and error, intuition, and luck. A variety of factors constrained companies from being more innovative, including government regulations, shipping and labor costs, lack of cash flow, raw material characteristics, marketing expertise, and raw material supply. There do not appear to be any resources that would be helpful to forest products companies, at least none that the interviewed companies could recommend. Offering companies the chance to exchange ideas and network is the most valuable resource available. The innovation environments in Alaska and Oregon are somewhat similar yet different in the marketing tactics employed and the techniques used to obtain market information. Furthermore, the type of innovation projects that each region focuses on differs, as does the actual process used to develop innovations. Future research should focus on completing a quantitative component to this study, developing short courses or 1-day seminars, identifying factors that contribute to innovation success and failure, investigating why the forest products industry is not innovative by nature, and exploring the external acquisition of innovation in the forest products industry. . more information

Cambridge: Harvard University Press. Good. 1964. First Edition. Hardcover. Xxiv, [2], 946 pages, plates, maps, cloth, ex-library with usual library markings, some underlining, otherwise very good. 1st edition. From the preface: "This work is a legal history of the lumber industry in Wisconsin through the years (about 1836 to 1915) when that industry grew from small beginnings to major consequence and then rapidly declined to a position of relatively limited importance in the economy of the state and region. Because the industry moved in the main currents of its times, this is also a legal history of some key aspects of economic growth in the nineteenth-century United States. I appraise economic affairs here primarily in the light of their deposit in legal records. This is also, thus, a history of roles of law in society - of the distinctive impress which legal process (legislative, executive, judicial, administrative) made upon the general life, measured in part by the distinctive impress which the general life made upon law.

Portland, OR: Research Station,. Very Good. 2005. Soft Cover. General technical report PNW-GTR-628. 30 pages, diagrams, wrappers, 8-1/2 by 11 inches, very good. Description: Fire, in conjunction with landforms and climate, shapes the structure and function of forests throughout the Western United States, where millions of acres of forest lands contain accumulations of flammable fuel that are much higher than historical conditions owing to various forms of fire exclusion. The Healthy Forests Restoration Act mandates that public land managers assertively address this situation through active management of fuel and vegetation. This document synthesizes the relevant scientific knowledge that can assist fuel-treatment projects on national forests and other public lands and contribute to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analyses and other assessments. It is intended to support science-based decision making for fuel management in dry forests of the Western United States at the scale of forest stands (about 1 to 200 acres). It highlights ecological principles that need to be considered when managing forest fuel and vegetation for specific conditions related to forest structure and fire hazard. It also provides quantitative and qualitative guidelines for planning and implementing fuel treatments through various silvicultural prescriptions and surface fuel treatments. Effective fuel treatments in forest stands with high fuel accumulations will typically require thinning to increase canopy base height, reduce canopy bulk density, reduce canopy continuity, and require a substantial reduction in surface fuel through prescribed fire or mechanical treatment or both. Long-term maintenance of desired fuel loadings and consideration of broader landscape patterns may improve the effectiveness of fuel treatments. . more information
