'Nature of War and Peace' Subject Of Free Lecture March 1

Lisa Brady, a Boise State University assistant history professor, will speak on “The Nature of War and Peace: An Environmental History” at 3 p.m. Tuesday, March 1, in the Student Union Hatch A Ballroom. The Friends of Anthropology lecture is free and the public is invited.

As an environmental historian, Brady studies the relationships between humans and nature and how their interactions have evolved over time and place, especially within the context of war. Brady is primarily a historian of American environmental history, but her interest in the global connections and implications of environmental issues figure prominently into her work.

The Friends of Anthropology lecture series is intended to facilitate communication and links between the Department of Anthropology and other academic units and programs across the university that share basic and applied research interests. For more information, call 426-3023.
