First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xii, 1 leaf, 357 pp. Original cloth. Very Good+, without dust jacket. 'American biology--and modern biology--came of age in the years between the two world wars. By all measures, the field expanded remarkably rapidly and put the United States on equal terms with Europe. Even more important than the growth in numbers of scientists (including women), societies, and labs was the expansion in the scope of biological research. Well-established areas of biology like paleontology and cytology found new questions to address and new techniques with which to answer them; new subfields--from radiation biology to reproductive science to human behavior--flourished. Genetics became an organizing principle across the field. Biologists and historians will find this collection of twelve original essays a stimulating overview of critical developments in twentieth-century biological sciences. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Marilyn Ogilvie, Leo Laporte, Adele E. Clarke, Hamilton Cravens, Gregg Mitman, Richard W. Burkhardt, Jr., Sharon Kingsland, Garland E. Allen, Diane B. Paul, and John Beatty' (Rutgers University Press Web site). Contents: Cytology in 1924 : expansion and collaboration / Jane Maienschein -- The "new look" women and the expansion of American zoology : Nettie Maria Stevens (1861-1912) and Alice Middleton Boring (1883-1955) / Marilyn Bailey Ogilvie -- George G. Simpson, paleontology, and the expansion of biology / Léo Laporte -- Embryology and the rise of American reproductive sciences, circa 1910-1940 / Adele E. Clarke -- Behaviorism revisited : developmental science, the maturation theory, and the biological basis of the human mind, 1920-1950s / Hamilton Cravens -- Struggling for identity : the study of animal behavior in America, 1930-1945 / Gregg Mitman and Richard W. Burkhardt, Jr. -- Toward a natural history of the human psyche : Charles Manning Child, Charles Judson Herrick, and the dynamic view of the individual at the University of Chicago / Sharon E. Kingsland. Old wine in new bottles : from eugenics to population control in the work of Raymond Pearl / Garland E. Allen -- The Rockefeller Foundation and the origins of behavior genetics / Diane B. Paul -- Genetics in the atomic age : the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission, 1947-1956 / John Beatty -- Epilogue : the development and expansion of the American Society of Zoologists / Keith R. Benson.
