Book Lamarckism and the Emergence of  Scientific  Social Sciences in Nineteenth Century Britain and France

Download or read book Lamarckism and the Emergence of Scientific Social Sciences in Nineteenth Century Britain and France written by Snait B. Gissis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: The book presents an original synthesizing framework on the relations between 'the biological' and 'the social'. Within these relations, the late nineteenth-century emergence of social sciences aspiring to be constituted as autonomous, as 'scientific' disciplines, is described, analyzed and explained. Through this framework, the author points to conceptual and constructive commonalities conjoining significant founding figures - Lamarck, Spencer, Hughlings Jackson, Ribot, Durkheim, Freud - who were not grouped nor analyzed in this manner before. Thus, the book offers a rather unique synthesis of the interactions of the social, the mental, and the evolutionary biological - Spencerian Lamarckism and/or Neo-Lamarckism - crystallizing into novel fields. It adds substantially to the understanding of the complexities of evolutionary debates during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. It will attract the attention of a wide spectrum of specialists, academics, and postgraduates in European history of the nineteenth century, history and philosophy of science, and history of biology and of the social sciences, including psychology

Download or read book Science and Polity in France written by Charles Coulston Gillispie and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-26 with total page 763 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the end of the eighteenth century, the French dominated the world of science. And although science and politics had little to do with each other directly, there were increasingly frequent intersections. This is a study of those transactions between science and state, knowledge and power--on the eve of the French Revolution. Charles Gillispie explores how the links between science and polity in France were related to governmental reform, modernization of the economy, and professionalization of science and engineering.

Book Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy

Download or read book Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy written by Róisín Burke and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 895 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Molecular Gastronomy: Scientific Foundations and Culinary Applications presents a unique overview of molecular gastronomy, the scientific discipline dedicated to the study of phenomena that occur during the preparation and consumption of dishes. It deals with the chemistry, biology and physics of food preparation, along with the physiology of food consumption. As such, it represents the first attempt at a comprehensive reference in molecular gastronomy, along with a practical guide, through selected examples, to molecular cuisine and the more recent applications named note by note cuisine. While several books already exist for a general audience, either addressing food science in general in a "light" way and/or dealing with modern cooking techniques and recipes, no book exists so far that encompasses the whole molecular gastronomy field, providing a strong interdisciplinary background in the physics, biology and chemistry of food and food preparation, along with good discussions on creativity and the art of cooking. Features: Gives A–Z coverage to the underlying science (physics, chemistry and biology) and technology, as well as all the key cooking issues (ingredients, tools and methods). Encompasses the science and practice of molecular gastronomy in the most accessible and up-to-date reference available. Contains a final section with unique recipes by famous chefs. The book is organized in three parts. The first and main part is about the scientific discipline of molecular and physical gastronomy; it is organized as an encyclopedia, with entries in alphabetical order, gathering the contributions of more than 100 authors, all leading scientists in food sciences, providing a broad overview of the most recent research in molecular gastronomy. The second part addresses educational applications of molecular gastronomy, from primary schools to universities. The third part provides some innovative recipes by chefs from various parts of the world. The authors have made a particular pedagogical effort in proposing several educational levels, from elementary introduction to deep scientific formalism, in order to satisfy the broadest possible audience (scientists and non-scientists). This new resource should be very useful to food scientists and chefs, as well as food and culinary science students and all lay people interested in gastronomy.

Book L invention et la repr  sentation des races au XVIIIe si  cle

Download or read book L invention et la repr sentation des races au XVIIIe si cle written by Isabelle Baudino and published by PU Bordeaux. This book was released on 2010 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Etudier la représentation des races dans l'Europe des Lumières, c'est se confronter à des discours complexes et parfois contradictoires. Si l'on trouve des références à des sources antérieures ou postérieures au siècle des Lumières proprement dit dans les études présentées ici, toutes sont centrées sur un " long dix-huitième siècle " au cours duquel l'emploi du terme " races " au pluriel, comme synonyme des " variétés " humaines, fut débattu avant de laisser peu à peu la place à un usage singulier. Les représentations textuelles et iconographiques analysées montrent que dans le cadre d'une conception largement monogéniste, ancrée dans une vision chrétienne, des tendances polygénistes émergent sans être formalisées en système. Ce volume se situe à l'articulation de plusieurs disciplines puisqu'il rassemble des articles de spécialistes français et britanniques d'anthropologie, de philosophie, d'histoire et d'histoire de l'art afin d'interroger le pouvoir des représentations matérielles et mentales sur la " fabrique symbolique de l'humain ".
