520 "In 1964-65, an international team of thirty-eight
scientists and assistants, led by Montreal physician
Stanley Skoryna, sailed to the mysterious Rapa Nui (Easter
Island) to conduct an unprecedented survey of its
biosphere. Born of Cold War concerns about pollution,
overpopulation, and conflict, and initially conceived as
the first of two trips, the project was designed to
document the island's status before a proposed airport
would link the one thousand people living in humanity's
remotest community to the rest of the world--its germs,
genes, culture, and economy. Based on archival papers,
diaries, photographs, and interviews with nearly twenty
members of the original team, Stanley's Dream sets the
expedition in its global context within the early days of
ecological research and the understudied International
Biological Program. Jacalyn Duffin traces the origins, the
voyage, the often-complicated life within the constructed
camp, the scientific preoccupations, the role of women,
the resultant reports, films, and publications, and the
previously unrecognized accomplishments of the project,
including a goodwill tour of South America, the delivery
of vaccines, and the discovery of a wonder drug. For Rapa
Nui, the expedition coincided with its rebellion against
the colonizing Chilean military, resulting in its first
democratic election. For Canada, it reflected national
optimism as the country prepared for its centennial and
adopted its own flag. Ending with Duffin's own journey to
the island to uncover the legacy of the study and the
impact of the airport and to elicit local memories,
Stanley's Dream is an entertaining and poignant account of
a long-forgotten but important Canadian-led international
expedition."--|cProvided by publisher.
