Three Penn State faculty members from the College of the Liberal Arts have been awarded Guggenheim Fellowships for 2012: Lori D. Ginzberg, professor of history and women's studies; Nina G. Jablonski, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology; and David A. Rosenbaum, Distinguished Professor of Psychology. The three are among a diverse group of 181 artists, scientists and scholars selected this year from nearly 3,000 applicants across the United States and Canada. According to the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, fellows are chosen on the basis of achievement and exceptional promise. This year's fellows represent 54 disciplines from 77 different academic institutions. (more)
Featured books by Penn State experts are:
Do Fish Feel Pain? by Victoria Braithwaite
Elizabeth Cady Stanton: An American Life, by Lori D. Ginzberg
Jesus Wars: How Four Patriarchs, Three Queens, and Two Emperors Decided What Christians Would Believe for the Next 1,500 Years, by Philip Jenkins (more)
