Chemistry in America 1876–1976
Author: A. Thackray
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401511241
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 582
Book Description
This study is an outgrowth of our interest in the history of modern chemistry. The paucity of reliable, quantitative knowledge about past science was brought home forcibly to us when we undertook a research seminar in the comparative history of modern chemistry in Britain, Germany, and the United States. That seminar, which took place at the University of Pennsylvania in the spring of 1975, was paralleled by one devoted to the work of the "Annales School". The two seminars together catalyzed the attempt to construct historical measures of change in aspects of one science, or "chem ical indicators". The present volume displays our results. Perhaps our labors may be most usefully compared with the work of those students of medieval science who devote their best efforts to the establish ment of texts. Only when acceptable texts have been constructed from fragmentary and corrupt sources can scholars move on to the more satisfying business of making history. So too in the modern period, a necessary pre liminary to the full history of any scientific profession is the establishing of reliable quantitative information in the form of statistical series. This volume does not offer history. Instead it provides certain element- indicators -- that may be useful to individuals interested in the history of American chemistry and chemical industry, and suggestive for policy.

Establishing Research Corporation
Author: Thomas D. Cornell
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
"From its outset in 1912, founder Frederick G. Cottrell expected Research Corporation to function as a philanthropic organization as well as a business. His intent was to see if public service could be given precedence over profit making. This book analyzes both the engineering and philanthropic efforts of Research Corporation's formative years. And because its establishment involved so many other organizations, studying its early history affords an opportunity to survey the beginnings of organized research and philanthropy in early twentieth-century America"--P. [4] of cover.
