Exploration and Science
Author: Michael Sean ReidyPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1576079864
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
This comprehensive volume explores the intricate, mutually dependent relationship between science and exploration—how each has repeatedly built on the discoveries of the other and, in the process, opened new frontiers. A simple question: Which came first, advances in navigation or successful voyages of discovery? A complicated answer: Both and neither. For more than four centuries, scientists and explorers have worked together—sometimes intentionally and sometimes not—in an ongoing, symbiotic partnership. When early explorers brought back exotic flora and fauna from newly discovered lands, scientists were able to challenge ancient authorities for the first time. As a result, scientists not only invented new navigational tools to encourage exploration, but also created a new approach to studying nature, in which observations were more important than reason and authority. The story of the relationship between science and exploration, analyzed here for the first time, is nothing less than the history of modern science and the expanding human universe.

楊國樞教授早期從事實驗研究，論文多以英文寫成，在後來各個重要的研究階段，也都會撰寫英文論文來做總結。先生活躍於國際心理學界，參與重要的心理學研討會，推動心理學本土化研究，發表許多英文論文。本文集特將楊先生的英文論文集結成冊，以「早期實驗與社會人格研究」（Early Experiments and Social Personality Research）、「心理轉變與現代化研究」（Research in Personality Trandformation and Modernity）、「華人本土心理學研究」（Research in Indigenous Chinese Psychology）三大主題出版九、十、十一等三冊。這三冊英文論文集可說是楊國樞教授畢生主要心理學研究論著的縮版。
