About Method
Author: Jutta Schickore
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022675989X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
Scientists’ views on what makes an experiment successful have developed dramatically throughout history. Different criteria for proper experimentation were privileged at different times, entirely new criteria for securing experimental results emerged, and the meaning of commitment to experimentation altered. In About Method, Schickore captures this complex trajectory of change from 1660 to the twentieth century through the history of snake venom research. As experiments with poisonous snakes and venom were both challenging and controversial, the experimenters produced very detailed accounts of their investigations, which go back three hundred years—making venom research uniquely suited for such a long-term study. By analyzing key episodes in the transformation of venom research, Schickore is able to draw out the factors that have shaped methods discourse in science. About Method shows that methodological advancement throughout history has not been simply a steady progression toward better, more sophisticated and improved methodologies of experimentation. Rather, it was a progression in awareness of the obstacles and limitations that scientists face in developing strategies to probe the myriad unknown complexities of nature. The first long-term history of this development and of snake venom research, About Method offers a major contribution to integrated history and philosophy of science.

Medical Use of Snake Venom Proteins
Author: Kurt F. Stocker
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780849358463
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
This fascinating book provides actual knowledge on evolution, anatomy habits, and classification of venomous snakes. It presents detailed, updated information on physicochemical, biochemical, and pharmacological characteristics of biomedically relevant snake venom proteins, their practical use and potential. This volume includes particular sections concerning neurotoxins and their application in neurophysiological and muscular research, snake venom proteins affecting the complement system, as well as the large field of snake venom components affecting the hemostatic and fibrinolytic system. Written in a comprehensive manner, this work communicates to the reader the importance of preventing the extinction of venomous snake species as the carriers of unique genetic information. This interesting book is a must for all who are involved with thrombosis, hemotology, toxinology, neurochemistry, as well as animal toxins within biological, medical or pharmaceutical education.
