Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2011. Quarto. Near Fine. "Observation is the most pervasive and fundamental practice of all the modern sciences, both natural and human. Its instruments include not only the naked senses but also tools such as the telescope and microscope, the questionnaire, the photographic plate, the notebook, the glassed-in beehive, and myriad other ingenious inventions designed to make the invisible visible, the evanescent permanent, the abstract concrete. Yet observation has almost never been considered as an object of historical inquiry in itself. This wide-ranging collection offers the first examination of the history of scientific observation in its own right, as both epistemic category and scientific practice. Histories of Scientific Observation features engaging episodes drawn from across the spectrum of the natural and human sciences, ranging from meteorology, medicine, and natural history to economics, astronomy, and psychology. The contributions spotlight how observers have scrutinized everythingfrom seaweed to X-ray radiation, household budgets to the emotionswith ingenuity, curiosity, and perseverance verging on obsession. This book makes a compelling case for the significance of the long, surprising, and epistemologically significant history of scientific observation, a history full of innovations that have enlarged the possibilities of perception, judgment, and reason."

Brochure originale. Condition: Gut. 26 p. Un bon exemplaire, très propre. - Extrait de l'introduction: En premier lieu, je voudrais remercier le Centre Alexandre Koyré et l'Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales pour cette occasion de présenter quelques uns dès projets de l'Institut Max-Planck pour l'Histoire des Sciences à Berlin. J'espère que la co-opération scientifique déjà commencée entre Paris et Berlin par des séjours des chercheurs individuels va s'étendre à des échanges et à des collaborations institutionelles. Je suis contente de voir aujourd'hui quelques anciens invités de l'Institut Max-Planck (et, j'espère, aussi quelques futurs invités). En second lieu, je voudrais vous demander pardon pour un français agrémenté non pas seulement d'anglicismes mais encore, est-ca plus grave, de germanismes. Si un verbe semble manquer, il faudra de la patience; il viendra probablement à la fin de la phrase. J'aspire seulement à la clarté, pas à l'exactitude grammaticale. - Wikipedia: Lorraine Daston, née le 9 juin 1951 à East Lansing (Michigan), est une historienne des sciences américaine. Co-directrice de l'Institut Max-Planck d'histoire des sciences à Berlin, elle est considérée comme une autorité en histoire scientifique et intellectuelle de la période moderne. En 1993, elle est nommée membre de l'Académie américaine des arts et des sciences. Sprache: Französisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.

Original brochure. Condition: Gut. 36 p. A good and very clean copy. - From the Introduction: On 6 February 1672 Isaac Newton described his response to light shone through a prism in a letter to Henry Oldenburg, Secretary of the Royal Society of London: "It was at first a pleasing divertisement to view the vivid and intense colours produced thereby; but after a while applying myself to consider them more circumspectly, I became surprised to see them in an oblong form; which, according to the received laws of refraction, I expected should have been circular. Comparing the length of this colored spectrum with its breadth, I found it about five times greater, a disproportion so extravagant that it excited me to a more than ordinary curiosity of examining from whence it might proceed." No doubt this opening passage of Newton's celebrated "New Theory about Light and Colours" was as much a fictionalized reconstruction of actual events as the accounts of the experiments that followed were. - Wikipedia: Lorraine Daston (born June 9, 1951) is an American historian of science. Director emerita of the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG) in Berlin, and visiting professor in the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago, she is an authority on Early Modern European scientific and intellectual history. In 1993, she was named a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. She is a permanent fellow at the Berlin Institute for Advanced Study. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
