Science and Religion Around the World
ISBN: 9780195328196 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The past quarter-century has seen an explosion of interest in the history of science and religion. But all too often the scholars writing it have focused their attention almost exclusively on the Christian experience, with only passing reference to other traditions of both science and faith. At a time when religious ignorance and misunderstanding have lethal consequences, such provincialism must be avoided and, in this pioneering effort to explore the historical relations of what we now call "science" and "religion," the authors go beyond the Abrahamic traditions to examine the way nature has...

Newton's Apple and Other Myths about Science
ISBN: 9780674967984 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A falling apple inspired Isaac Newton's insight into the law of gravity--or so the story goes. Is it true? Perhaps not. But the more intriguing question is why such stories endure as explanations of how science happens. Newton's Apple and Other Myths about Science brushes away popular misconceptions to provide a clearer picture of great scientific breakthroughs from ancient times to the present. Among the myths refuted in this volume is the idea that no science was done in the Dark Ages, that alchemy and astrology were purely superstitious pursuits, that fear of public...

Biology and Ideology from Descartes to Dawkins
ISBN: 9780226608419 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Over the course of human history, the sciences, and biology in particular, have often been manipulated to cause immense human suffering. For example, biology has been used to justify eugenic programs, forced sterilization, human experimentation, and death camps--all in an attempt to support notions of racial superiority. By investigating the past, the contributors to Biology and Ideology from Descartes to Dawkins hope to better prepare us to discern ideological abuse of science when it occurs in the future. Denis R. Alexander and Ronald L. Numbers bring together fourteen... Over the course of human history, the sciences, and biology in particular, have often been manipulated to cause immense human suffering.
