Book Synopsis Science and Catholicism in Argentina (1750–1960) by : Miguel de Asúa
Download or read book Science and Catholicism in Argentina (1750–1960) written by Miguel de Asúa and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science and Catholicism in Argentina (1750–1960) is the first comprehensive study on the relationship between science and religion in a Spanish-speaking country with a Catholic majority and a "Latin" pattern of secularisation. The text takes the reader from Jesuit missionary science in colonial times, through the conflict-ridden 19th century, to the Catholic revival of the 1930s in Argentina. The diverse interactions between science and religion revealed in this analysis can be organised in terms of their dynamic of secularisation. The indissoluble identification of science and the secular, which operated at rhetorical and institutional levels among the liberal elite and the socialists in the 19th century, lost part of its force with the emergence of Catholic scientists in the course of the 20th century. In agreement with current views that deny science the role as the driving force of secularisation, this historical study concludes that it was the process of secularisation that shaped the interplay between religion and science, not the other way around.
Book Synopsis Les sciences de la nature et les sciences de l'homme by : Philippe Huneman
Download or read book Les sciences de la nature et les sciences de l'homme written by Philippe Huneman and published by Ellipses Marketing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les sciences sont pour nous le modèle même du discours vrai. Mais en quoi au juste se détachent-elles de l'ensemble de nos connaissances ? Spontanément, les sciences semblent se diviser en deux domaines : sciences naturelles et sciences de l'homme. Pareille évidence recouvre-t-elle une différence d'objet, de méthode, ou d'autre chose encore ? Poser cette question, c'est aussi traiter des relations et des distinctions entre la nature et l'homme.
Book Synopsis Introduction to the Social Sciences (RLE Social Theory) by : Maurice Duverger
Download or read book Introduction to the Social Sciences (RLE Social Theory) written by Maurice Duverger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Duverger at last provides the student with an overall view of the methodology of the social sciences. He briefly traces the origin of the notion of a social science, showing how it emerged from social philosophy. Its essential elements and pre-conditions are described; the splintering of social science into specialist disciplines is explained, and the need for a general sociology confirmed. The techniques of observation used by social scientists are dealt with in some detail and the unity of the social sciences is illustrated by examples of the universal application of these techniques. Documentary evidence in its various forms are described along with the basic analytical techniques, including quantitative methods and content analysis. Other methods of gathering information through polls, interviews, attitude scales and participant observation are all described. Professor Duverger brings together the different kinds of analysis used to assess the information thus gathered. Arguing that observing and theorizing are not two different stages or levels of research, he examines the practical value and difficulties of general sociological theories, partial theories and models and working hypotheses. He both describes and assesses the limitations of experiment and the scope of comparative methods in the social sciences. He then gives elementary instructions for using and assessing the value of mathematical techniques. The possibilities of presenting social phenomena through graphs and charts are also explored. There are useful book lists and diagrams.

Book Synopsis The Law's Ultimate Frontier: Towards an Ecological Jurisprudence by : Horatia Muir Watt
Download or read book The Law's Ultimate Frontier: Towards an Ecological Jurisprudence written by Horatia Muir Watt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book offers an ambitious and interdisciplinary vision of how private international law (or the conflict of laws) might serve as a heuristic for re-working our general understandings of legality in directions that respond to ever-deepening global ecological crises. Unusual in legal scholarship, the author borrows (in bricolage mode) from the work of Bruno Latour, alongside indigenous cosmologies, extinction theories and Levinassian phenomenology, to demonstrate why this field's specific frontier location at the outpost of the law where it is viewed from the outside as obscure and from the inside as a self-contained normative world generates its potential power to transform law generally and globally. Combining pragmatic and pluralist theory with an excavation of 'shadow' ecological dimensions of law, the author, a recognised authority within the field as conventionally understood, offers a truly global view. Put simply, it is a generational magnum opus. All international and transnational lawyers, be they in the private or public field, should read this book.

Book Synopsis Raman Spectroscopy Applied to Earth Sciences and Cultural Heritage by : J. Dubessy
Download or read book Raman Spectroscopy Applied to Earth Sciences and Cultural Heritage written by J. Dubessy and published by The Mineralogical Society of Great Britain and Ireland. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spectroscopic methods such as Raman are used to investigate the structure and dynamics of matter. They are essential for the study of the different types of mineral or organic materials produced at the Earths surface or interior. As a result of technological improvements in gratings, detectors, filters and personal computers in the last decade, many micro-Raman spectrometers have become plug-and-play instruments, very easy to use and available at a lower cost than the early Raman microprobes. Thus, many laboratories in Earth Sciences and Cultural Heritage are equipped with these new spectrometers. Commercial, portable Raman spectrometers working in the field have also contributed to the spread of Raman spectroscopy. Poor levels of education in terms of Raman spectroscopy in undergraduate courses in Earth Sciences make it difficult for individuals to obtain information of the highest quality relevant to Earth sciences and Cultural Heritage. This volume is, therefore, timely. Four main topics are addressed: Theory; Methodology, including the instrumentation; Experimental aspects; and Application.
Book Synopsis The Private Science of Louis Pasteur by : Gerald L. Geison
Download or read book The Private Science of Louis Pasteur written by Gerald L. Geison and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Private Science of Louis Pasteur, Gerald Geison has written a controversial biography that finally penetrates the secrecy that has surrounded much of this legendary scientist's laboratory work. Geison uses Pasteur's laboratory notebooks, made available only recently, and his published papers to present a rich and full account of some of the most famous episodes in the history of science and their darker sides--for example, Pasteur's rush to develop the rabies vaccine and the human risks his haste entailed. The discrepancies between the public record and the "private science" of Louis Pasteur tell us as much about the man as they do about the highly competitive and political world he learned to master. Although experimental ingenuity served Pasteur well, he also owed much of his success to the polemical virtuosity and political savvy that won him unprecedented financial support from the French state during the late nineteenth century. But a close look at his greatest achievements raises ethical issues. In the case of Pasteur's widely publicized anthrax vaccine, Geison reveals its initial defects and how Pasteur, in order to avoid embarrassment, secretly incorporated a rival colleague's findings to make his version of the vaccine work. Pasteur's premature decision to apply his rabies treatment to his first animal-bite victims raises even deeper questions and must be understood not only in terms of the ethics of human experimentation and scientific method, but also in light of Pasteur's shift from a biological theory of immunity to a chemical theory--similar to ones he had often disparaged when advanced by his competitors. Through his vivid reconstruction of the professional rivalries as well as the national adulation that surrounded Pasteur, Geison places him in his wider cultural context. In giving Pasteur the close scrutiny his fame and achievements deserve, Geison's book offers compelling reading for anyone interested in the social and ethical dimensions of science. Originally published in 1995.
