Science without Laws: Model Systems, Cases, Exemplary Narratives
ISBN: 9780822340683 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Physicists regularly invoke universal laws, such as those of motion and electromagnetism, to explain events. Biological and medical scientists have no such laws. How then do they acquire a reliable body of knowledge about biological organisms and human disease? One way is by repeatedly returning to, manipulating, observing, interpreting, and reinterpreting certain subjects--such as flies, mice, worms, or microbes--or, as they are known in biology, "model systems." Across the natural and social sciences, other disciplinary fields have developed canonical examples that have played a role...

The Life of a Virus: Tobacco Mosaic Virus as an Experimental Model, 1930-1965
ISBN: 9780226120263 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. We normally think of viruses in terms of the devastating diseases they cause, from smallpox to AIDS. But in "The Life of a Virus, " Angela N. H. Creager introduces us to a plant virus that has taught us much of what we know about all viruses, including the lethal ones, and that also played a crucial role in the development of molecular biology.
Focusing on the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) research conducted in Nobel laureate Wendell Stanley's lab, Creager argues that TMV served as a model system for virology and molecular biology, much as the fruit fly and laboratory mouse have for genetics...

Life Atomic: A History of Radioisotopes in Science and Medicine
ISBN: 9780226323961 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. After World War II, the US Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) began mass-producing radioisotopes, sending out nearly 64,000 shipments of radioactive materials to scientists and physicians by 1955. Even as the atomic bomb became the focus of Cold War anxiety, radioisotopes represented the government's efforts to harness the power of the atom for peace--advancing medicine, domestic energy, and foreign relations. In Life Atomic, Angela N. H. Creager tells the story of how these radioisotopes, which were simultaneously scientific tools and political icons, transformed biomedicine and ecology....

The Animal/Human Boundary: Historical Perspectives
ISBN: 9781580461207 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The way in which humans articulate identities, social hierarchies, and their inversions through relations with animals has been a fruitful topic in anthropological and historical investigations for the last several years. The contributors to this volume call attention to the symbolic meanings of animals, from the casting of first-year students as goats in medieval universities to the representation of vermin as greedy thieves in early modern England. But the essays in this volume are also concerned with the more material and bodily aspects of animal-human relations, like eating regulations,...

Feminism in Twentieth-Century Science, Technology, and Medicine
ISBN: 9780226120232 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What useful changes has feminism brought to science? Feminists have enjoyed success in their efforts to open many fields to women as participants. But the effects of feminism have not been restricted to altering employment and professional opportunities for women. The essays in this volume explore how feminist theory has had a direct impact on research in the biological and social sciences, in medicine, and in technology, often providing the impetus for fundamentally changing the theoretical underpinnings and practices of such research. In archaeology, evidence of women's hunting activities...
