 Amazon.ca: Books: The Origins of Freemasonry: Scotland's Century, 1590-1710   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Stevenson bases his research on actual records of almost a hundred Scottish Masonic lodges that date from the 1600's, along with municipal records, other guilds' records, diaries, and royal statutes.
Stevenson's most important finding, established early in the book, is that both before and after the establishment of the Lodges, masons were also members of municipally chartered, or incorporated, building trades guilds along with carpenters, wrights, and the detested cowans or unskilled laborers.
Stevenson covers such topics as initiation practices (both Masonic and other), the "Mason Word", the number and names of the degrees, the development of the Master Mason degree, and the frequency, content, and location of meetings.

 Powell's Books - Cataclysm: The First World War as Political Tragedy by David Stevenson
Stevenson's close analysis of the political, economic and cultural dimensions of the conflict unravels the reasons why Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, Italy, Russia, France and even Britain saw much to gain from a war that each hoped to win in short order, with the help of allies.
Stevenson is particularly critical of American involvement, which, he says, pushed Germany toward surrender, but was also belated, inefficient, badly led and (with respect to President Wilson) diplomatically unsophisticated in coping with European cynicism.
Despite these self-imposed limitations, Stevenson is ambitious in his scope, seeking to chronologically describe the all of the important military campaigns how they impacted and were impacted by the political decisions being made in the various capitals.

 Caltech Press Release, 6/30/1999, David Stevenson
In the July 1 issue of the journal Nature, Caltech professor Dave Stevenson says in a new study that such objects could be life-sustaining due especially to the molecular hydrogen they accreted when the solar system formed long ago.
Because these bodies formed when the solar system was permeated with hydrogen gas, they retained a dense atmosphere of hydrogen, allowing them to have surfaces with temperatures not too different from Earth, and possibly water oceans.
Stevenson writes that in the absence of sunlight, the natural radioactivity inside an Earth-like planet would only be sufficient to raise the radiating temperature of the body to 30 degrees above absolute zero (that's about minus 400 Fahrenheit).
