Ajouter au paniervery good dust-jacket, fresh attractive copy, very good black cloth. previous owner's name, place, and date in ink on half-title page. STRICK, JAMES E. Wilhelm Reich, Biologist. Cambridge, Massachusetts ; London, England: Harvard University Press, 2015, second printing, 467pp., . Psychoanalyst, political theorist, pioneer of bod…y therapies, prophet of the sexual revolutionall fitting titles, but Wilhelm Reich has never been recognized as a serious laboratory scientist, despite his experimentation with bioelectricity and unicellular organisms. Wilhelm Reich, Biologist is an eye-opening reappraisal of one of twentieth-century science's most controversial figuresperhaps the only writer whose scientific works were burned by both the Nazis and the U.S. government. Refuting allegations of "pseudoscience" that have long dogged Reich's research, James Strick argues that Reich's lab experiments in the mid-1930s represented the cutting edge of light microscopy and time-lapse micro-cinematography and deserve to be taken seriously as legitimate scientific contributions. / Reich's experimental findings and interpretations were considered discredited, but not because of shoddy lab technique, as has often been claimed. Scientific opposition to Reich's experiments, Strick contends, grew out of resistance to his unorthodox sexual theories and his Marxist political leanings. - CONTENTS: 1.
