Fabulous Science: Fact and Fiction in the History of Scientific Discovery
Posted on 2010-04-11
|  |
The great biologist Louis Pasteur suppressed ‘awkward’ data because it didn’t support the case he was making. Gregor Mendel, the supposed ‘founder of genetics’, was no Mendelian. Joseph Lister’s famously clean hospital wards were actually notoriously dirty. Alexander Fleming misled the world about his role in the discovery of penicillin. And Einstein’s general relativity was only ‘confirmed’ in 1919 because an eminent British scientist ruthlessly massaged his figures. These are some of the recent findings of historians covered in this book. In writing it my primary aim has been to bring to the attention of a wider audience the fruits of a generation’s research into the history of science. But, although the scholarship I draw on seriously challenges the reputations of major scientific figures, this is not an exercise in pointless iconoclasm. Above all, this book aims to offer insights into the conduct of scientific debate, the securing of scientific immortality, and the complex interplay between scientists and the worlds in which they operate.Author: John Waller Publisher: Oxford University Press (2002) Type: pdf Pages: 320 Download: 2.4 MBPassword: warforce.info
