Book Description
Kermit the Frog famously said that it isnÕt easy being green, and in Living at Micro Scale David Dusenbery shows that it isnÕt easy being smallÑexisting at the size of, say, a rotifer, a tiny multicellular animal just at the boundary between the visible and the microscopic. ÒImagine,Ó he writes, Òstepping off a curb and waiting a week for your foot to hit the ground.Ó At that scale, we would be small enough to swim inside the letter O in the word Òrotifer.Ó What are the physical consequences of life at this scale? How do such organisms move, identify prey and predators and (if theyÕre so inclined) mates, signal to one another, and orient themselves? In clear and engaging prose, Dusenbery uses straightforward physics to demonstrate the constraints on the size, shape, and behavior of tiny organisms. While recounting the historical development of the basic concepts, he unearths a corner of microbiology rich in history, and full of lessons about how science does or does not progress. Marshalling findings from different fields to show why tiny organisms have some of the properties they are found to have, Dusenbery shows a science that doesnÕt always move triumphantly forward, and is dependent to a great extent on accident and contingency.

Book Description
A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program for monographs. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Wherever we turn, we see diverse things scaled for us, from cities to economies, from history to love. We know scale by many names and through many familiar antinomies: local and global,micro and macroevents to name a few. Even the most critical among us often proceed with our analysis as if such scales were the ready-made platforms of social life, rather than asking how, why, and to what effect are scalar distinctions forged in the first place. How do scalar distinctions help actors and analysts alike make sense of and navigate their social worlds? What do these distinctions reveal and what do they conceal? How are scales construed and what effects do they have on the way those who abide by them think and act? This pathbreaking volume attends to the practical labor of scale-making and the communicative practices this labor requires. From an ethnographic perspective, the authors demonstrate that scale is practice and process before it becomes product, whether in the work of projecting the commons, claiming access to the big picture, or scaling the seriousness of a crime.
