Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1850s, no scientist in the British Empire was more visible than Richard Owen. Mentioned in the same breath as Isaac Newton and championed as Britain’s answer to France’s Georges Cuvier and Germany’s Alexander von Humboldt, Owen was, as the Times declared in 1856, the most “distinguished man of science in the country.” But, a century and a half later, Owen remains largely obscured by the shadow of the most famous Victorian naturalist of all, Charles Darwin. Publicly marginalized by his contemporaries for his critique of natural selection, Owen suffered personal attacks that undermined his credibility long after his name faded from history. With this innovative biography, Nicolaas A. Rupke resuscitates Owen’s reputation. Arguing that Owen should no longer be judged by the evolution dispute that figured in only a minor part of his work, Rupke stresses context, emphasizing the importance of places and practices in the production and reception of scientific knowledge. Dovetailing with the recent resurgence of interest in Owen’s life and work, Rupke’s book brings the forgotten naturalist back into the canon of the history of science and demonstrates how much biology existed with, and without, Darwin
Book Synopsis Andrew Fernando Holmes by : Richard W. Vaudry
Download or read book Andrew Fernando Holmes written by Richard W. Vaudry and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physician, surgeon, natural historian, educator, Protestant evangelical. Andrew Fernando Holmes's name is synonymous with the McGill medical faculty and with the discovery of a congenital heart malformation known as the "Holmes heart." He also played a critical role in the creation of a scientific culture in early-nineteenth-century Montreal. Born in captivity at Cadiz, Spain, Holmes immigrated to Lower Canada in the first decade of the nineteenth century. He arrived in a province that was experiencing profound social, economic, and cultural change as the result of a long process of integration into the British Atlantic world. A transatlantic perspective, therefore, undergirds this biography, from an exploration of how Holmes's family members were participants in an Atlantic world of trade and consumption, to explaining how his educational experiences at Edinburgh and Paris informed his approach to the practice of medicine, medical education, and medical politics. This fascinating biography also examines Holmes's deepest religious convictions, positioning them at the centre of his work and life.

Book Synopsis Styles of Reasoning in the British Life Sciences by : James Elwick
Download or read book Styles of Reasoning in the British Life Sciences written by James Elwick and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2007-09-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elwick explores how the concept of "compound individuality" brought together life scientists working in pre-Darwinian London. Scientists conducting research in comparative anatomy, physiology, cellular microscopy, embryology and the neurosciences repeatedly stated that plants and animals were compounds of smaller independent units. Discussion of a "bodily economy" was widespread. But by 1860, the most flamboyant discussions of compound individuality had come to an end in Britain. Elwick relates the growth and decline of questions about compound individuality to wider nineteenth-century debates about research standards and causality. He uses specific technical case studies to address overarching themes of reason and scientific method.

Book Synopsis Hermaphroditism, Medical Science and Sexual Identity in Spain, 18501960 by : Richard Cleminson
Download or read book Hermaphroditism, Medical Science and Sexual Identity in Spain, 18501960 written by Richard Cleminson and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2009-10-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book in English to analyse the medical category of ‘hermaphroditism’ in Spain over the period 1850-1960. It attempts to show how the relationship between the male and female body, biological ‘sex’, gender and sexuality constantly changed in the light of emerging medical, legal and social influences. Tracing the evolution of the hermaphrodite from its association with the ‘marvellous’ to the association with intersexuality and transexuality, this book emphasizes how the frameworks employed by scientists and doctors reflected not only changing international paradigms with respect to ‘hermaphrodite science’ but also social anxieties about shifting gender roles, the evolving discourse on sexuality and, in particular, the increased visibility of the ‘sexual deviancies’ such as homosexuality and changing legislation on marriage and divorce. Finally, we hope to open a space whereby the voice of ‘hermaphrodites’ and ‘intersexuals’ themselves could be heard in the past as agents in the construction of their own destiny as figures deemed ‘in-between’ by medicine and society.

Book Synopsis New Therapies for Neonatal Respiratory Failure by : Bruce R. Boynton
Download or read book New Therapies for Neonatal Respiratory Failure written by Bruce R. Boynton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-11-25 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diagnosis and treatment of respiratory problems in the newborn have advanced significantly over recent years, although respiratory failure remains an important cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. This book provides a comprehensive overview of respiratory physiology in the newborn, and of the mechanism underlying respiratory failure in this age group. It goes on to present in detail the techniques, both novel and well established, for effective ventilatory support. In presenting and evaluating the available treatment modalities, the authors consider not only clinical indications, modes of delivery and monitoring, but also complications and outcomes. Comprehensive and up to date, this is an essential handbook and reference for clinicians in neonatal medicine, that will help to optimise their management of respiratory failure in the newborn.
Book Synopsis Brain, Mind and Consciousness in the History of Neuroscience by : C.U.M. Smith
Download or read book Brain, Mind and Consciousness in the History of Neuroscience written by C.U.M. Smith and published by Springer Science & Business. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of essays examines the problem of mind, looking at how the problem has appeared to neuroscientists (in the widest sense) from classical antiquity through to contemporary times. Beginning with a look at ventricular neuropsychology in antiquity, this book goes on to look at Spinozan ideas on the links between mind and body, Thomas Willis and the foundation of Neurology, Hooke’s mechanical model of the mind and Joseph Priestley’s approach to the mind-body problem. The volume offers a chapter on the 19th century Ottoman perspective on western thinking. Further chapters trace the work of nineteenth century scholars including George Henry Lewes, Herbert Spencer and Emil du Bois-Reymond. The book covers significant work from the twentieth century, including an examination of Alfred North Whitehead and the history of consciousness, and particular attention is given to the development of quantum consciousness. Chapters on slavery and the self and the development of an understanding of Dualism bring this examination up to date on the latest 21st century work in the field. At the heart of this book is the matter of how we define the problem of consciousness itself: has there been any progress in our understanding of the working of mind and brain? This work at the interface between science and the humanities will appeal to experts from across many fields who wish to develop their understanding of the problem of consciousness, including scholars of Neuroscience, Behavioural Science and the History of Science.
