Osiris research journal devoted (17 résultats)

222p., footnotes, illustrated with photos and figures, notes on contributors, index, very good paper edition in original wraps. Second Series, Volume 12.

Paperback, 222 pp. What do research on women in science and research on science and gender have to do with each other? This volume brings together prominent historians and philosophers of science to examine women's participation in science, gender and science, and the potential for interaction between these two pieces of a larger puzzle. The eleven chapters included here explore a number of interrelated topics: the experiences of individual women working in science; the demographic patterns of and support for women in specific fields; the gendered construction of scientific education and terminology; the impact of feminist critiques on contemporary science; and more. The result is a collection of works that are rich in suggestions, specific in their evidence, and grounded in the complex discussion of gender in late twentieth century cultural and academic life.…

8vo, 236pp. Original matte blue periodical wrapper, very slight signs of wear at corners and edges. b/w illustrations. A near-fine copy. First Edition.

Printed boards, 8vo, 321 pp. The studies that make up the volume are grouped in four sections. The first revisits "classic themes" examining the latest work and interpretations of topics and themes treated in historical writing in the 1960s and earlier. (essays on : Institutional History; Science in Medicine; Science and Religion; and Science in the Federal Government.) .The second set of essays discusses historical writing on six scientific specialties or disciplines. This approach is new because much work on national science has been chronological or thematic rather than disciplinary in orientation. (essays on : History of Geology; History of Astronomy; History of Chemistry; History of Biology; History of Physics; and History of the Social Sciences). Taken collectively, these essays reveal the premises held by those in disciplinary fields and the many gaps in current research. .The third section deals with approaches and areas of study that are, in the mid 1980s, gaining or requiring significant attention. Essays here both examine the connections of the history of science with other disciplines and investigate its relationships with industry, public policy makers, and the military. (essays on : Native Knowledge in the Americas; Science and Technology; Science and War; Science and Public Policy Since World War II). One final, comprehensive essay analyzes the sources and resources available for further historical work. (Bibliographies, Reference Works, and Archives). Indexed. Very Good, a trifle rubbed at extremities.…
