Hardcover. Condition: Like New. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Book in excellent unread/unused condition. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> Popular associations with chemistry range from poisons, hazards, chemical warfare and environmental pollution to alchemical pseudoscience, sorcery and mad scientists, which gravely affect the public image of science in general. While chemists have merely complained about their public image, social and cultural studies of science have largely avoided anything related to chemistry.This book provides, for the first time, an in-depth understanding of the cultural and historical contexts in which the public image of chemistry has emerged. It argues that this image has been shaped through recurring and unlucky interactions between chemists in popularizing their discipline and nonchemists in expressing their expectations and fears of science. Written by leading scholars from the humanities, social sciences and chemistry in North America, Europe and Australia, this volume explores a blind spot in the science-society relationship and calls for a constructive dialog between scientists and their public. …

Paperback. Condition: New. "Overall, this collection of case studies provides an outstanding starting point for understanding the ethics of chemistry. It is an extremely important contribution to the study of chemical ethics . Ethics of Chemistry is a key resource for educators interested in integrating ethics instruction into their chemistry curricula . an important foundation for equipping students with the moral judgement and analytical skills necessary to contend with the ethical issues they are likely to face in their professional lives."Nature Chemistry". the book offers a general introduction to many relevant topics concerning the values, responsibilities, and judgements in (and of) chemistry. The volume could be helpful for university students and teachers or even general readers interested in the ethics of chemistry." José Ramón Bertomeu-SánchezAmbixAlthough chemistry has been the target of numerous public moral debates for over a century, there is still no academic field of ethics of chemistry to develop an ethically balanced view of the discipline. And while ethics courses are increasingly demanded for science and engineering students in many countries, chemistry is still lagging behind because of a lack of appropriate teaching material. This volume fills both gaps by establishing the scope of ethics of chemistry and providing a cased-based approach to teaching, thereby also narrating a cultural history of chemistry.From poison gas in WWI to climate engineering of the future, this volume covers the most important historical cases of chemistry. It draws lesson from major disasters of the past, such as in Bhopal and Love Canal, or from thalidomide, Agent Orange, and DDT. It further introduces to ethical arguments pro and con by discussing issues about bisphenol-A, polyvinyl chloride, and rare earth elements; as well as of contested chemical projects such as human enhancement, the creation of artificial life, and patents on human DNA. Moreover, it illustrates chemical engagements in preventing hazards, from the prediction of ozone depletion, to Green Chemistry, and research in recycling, industrial substance substitution, and clean-up. Students also learn about codes of conduct and chemical regulations.An international team of experts narrate the historical cases and analyse their ethical dimensions. All cases are suitable for undergraduate teaching, either in classes of ethics, history of chemistry, or in chemistry classes proper.…

Condition: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren, Schnitt leicht angeschmutzt. Neun Antworten auf eine alte Frage. Wozu Wissenschaft? Um zweckfreie Erkenntnis zu gewinnen oder um neue Techniken zu entwickeln? Der Philosoph Joachim Schummer weist beides zurück und zeigt anschaulich, wie alle Wissenschaften schon immer neun verschiedene Zwecke verfolgt haben. Alle arbeiten auf ihre Weise an einer Verbesserung der Welt, an Methoden zur Schärfung des Denkens, Erklärungen und Aufklärung über die Welt, Formen des Umgangs mit der Zukunft, der Erzeugung von neuem und provokativem Wissen, der Befriedigung kultivierter Neugier, Orientierungen in der Welt, der fachlichen und allgemeinen Bildung sowie der Erfüllung in einer selbstgewählten Lebensform. Nur wenn alle Zwecke beachtet werden, kann die Wissenschaft der Gesellschaft von Nutzen sein. 243 Seiten, broschiert (Kulturverlag Kadmos 2014). Statt EUR 19,90.
