Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The untold story of the rise of a new scientific field, ancient DNA research, and how Jurassic Park and popular media influenced its development Ancient DNA researchthe recovery of genetic material from ancient and extinct organismsis a discipline that developed from science fiction into reality between the 1980s and today. Drawing on historical and archival material, as well as original interviews with more than fifty scientists worldwide, Elizabeth Jones explores the fields formation and explains its relationship with the media by examining its close connection to de-extinction, the science and technology of resurrecting extinct species. She reveals how the search for DNA from fossils flourished under the influence of intense press and public interest, particularly as this new line of research coincided with the book and movie Jurassic Park. This book presents the first historical and sociological account of the search for DNA from ancient and extinct organisms with attention to the intimate interplay between science and celebrity. The untold story of the rise of a new scientific field, ancient DNA research, and how Jurassic Park and popular media influenced its development Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback. Etat : New. The untold story of the rise of the new scientific field of ancient DNA research, and how Jurassic Park and popular media influenced its development "Fun and thought-provoking. . . . Jones builds a wry, often wise, study of science as a very human endeavor. She makes a powerful case that ancient-DNA research feeds off media attention as much as the media feeds off it."-Victoria L. Herridge, Nature Ancient DNA research-the recovery of genetic material from long-dead organisms-is a discipline that developed from science fiction into a reality between the 1980s and today. Drawing on scientific, historical, and archival material, as well as original interviews with more than fifty researchers worldwide, Elizabeth Jones explores the field's formation and explains its relationship with the media by examining its close connection to de-extinction, the science and technology of resurrecting extinct species. She reveals how the search for DNA from fossils flourished under the influence of intense press and public interest, particularly as this new line of research coincided with the book and movie Jurassic Park. Ancient DNA is the first account to trace the historical and sociological interplay between science and celebrity in the rise of this new research field. In the process, Jones argues that ancient DNA research is more than a public-facing science: it is a celebrity science. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9780300240122
