Baldwin, Gerd Graßhoff, Jürgen Renn, Dagmar Schäfer, Robert Schlögl, Bernard F. Schutz Edition Open Access Development Team Lindy Divarci, Samuel Gfrörer, Klaus Thoden, Malte Vogl The Edition Open Access (EOA) platform was founded to bring together publication ini- tiatives seeking to disseminate the results of scholarly work in a format that combines tra- ditional publications with the digital medium. It currently hosts the open-access publica- tions of the “Max Planck Research Library for the History and Development of Knowledge” (MPRL) and “Edition Open Sources” (EOS). EOA is open to host other open access initia- tives similar in conception and spirit, in accordance with the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the sciences and humanities, which was launched by the Max Planck Society in 2003. By combining the advantages of traditional publications and the digital medium, the platform offers a new way of publishing research and of studying historical topics or current issues in relation to primary materials that are otherwise not easily available. The volumes are available both as printed books and as online open access publications. They are directed at scholars and students of various disciplines, as well as at a broader public interested in how science shapes our world.

Max Planck Research Library for the History and Development of Knowledge The Max Planck Research Library for the History and Development of Knowledge comprises the sub- series, Studies, Proceedings and Textbooks. They present original scientific work submitted under the scholarly responsibility of members of the Scientific Board and their academic peers. The initiative is currently supported by research departments of three Max Planck Institutes: the MPI for the History of Science, the Fritz Haber Institute of the MPG and the MPI for Gravitational Physics (Albert Ein- stein Institute). The publications of the Studies series are dedicated to key subjects in the history and development of knowledge, bringing together perspectives from different fields and combining source- based empirical research with theoretically guided approaches. The Proceedings series presents the results of scientific meetings on current issues and supports, at the same time, further cooperation on these issues by offering an electronic platform with further resources and the possibility for comments and interactions.

Secord Professor of History and Philosophy of Science Department of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge History of Science in a World of Readers: Frames of References for Global Exchange Dagmar Schäfer and Angela N. H. Creager The idea for this collection was born on a foggy day in March 2015 during a scholarly retreat on the outskirts of Berlin. A photo of a reader sitting in a crowded bookshop in Shanghai, China, holding the 1990 Chinese translation of Joseph Needham’s introductory volume, Science and Civilisation,1 elicited a lively debate about the purpose, themes, and reception of translations in the globalizing discipline of the history of science, technology and medicine.2 What role should historians of science have in communicating their own body of literature—its methods and concerns—across linguistic boundaries? This anthology, published in both English and Chinese, is an initial response to that de- bate, reflecting a wish to counteract and complement both market-driven and individual ef- forts with a collective reflection on some of the influential literature in this field published in English since 1990. The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG), Berlin, and the History of Science Society (HSS) organized a selection committee including repre- sentatives from six other societies—the American Association for the History of Medicine (AAHM), the British Society for the History of Science (BSHS), the Division of the History of Science and Technology of the International Union of History and Philosophy of Science and Technology (DHST/IUHPST), the European Society for the History of Science (ESHS), the Society for the History of Technology (SHOT), and the Society for the Social History of Medicine (SSHM). Twelve chapters were selected for translation into Chinese based on an online poll that ran between October and December 2015. This version features seven chap- ters in their original form, as the other five were unavailable for publication due to copyright restrictions.3 The selection committee reviewed, evaluated, and ranked an initial shortlist of 78 arti- cles before deciding on the final list. Given how geographically dispersed English-language historians of science are, this arrangement enabled the committee to use current global tech- nologies to crowd-source candidate publications while ensuring an appropriate balance of articles on science, technology, and medicine over a range of time periods and regions, as well as a diverse group of authors. We believe that translations—in the linguistic sense of the word—serve an important function as a scholarly practice in internationally competitive research, which is character- ized by an increasing number of diverse, multilingual actors on the one hand, and an increas- ing tendency towards a hegemonic linguistic approach on the other.4 Literary translations, in contrast to collaborative monolingual publications (often produced by authors from varied 1Needham ([1954] 1990). 2If not otherwise indicated, history of science is hereinafter used to include history of technology and history of medicine. 3Rosenberg (1992); Kohler (1999); Blair (2003); Galison (2003); Green (2008). 4Gordin (2015, 219).

  • Macintyre, Virtue Ethics, and the Historiography of Science
    The Virtues of Scientific Practice: MacIntyre, Virtue Ethics, and the Historiography of Science Daniel J. Hicks and Thomas A. Stapleford* Abstract “Practice” has become a ubiquitous term in the history of science, and yet historians have not always reflected on its philosophical import and especially on its potential connections with ethics. In this essay, we draw on the work of the virtue ethicist Alasdair MacIntyre to develop a theory of “communal practices” and explore how such an approach can inform the history of science, including allegations about the corruption of science by wealth or power; consideration of scientific ethics or “moral economies”; the role of values in science; the ethical distinctiveness (or not) of scientific vocations; and the relationship between history of science and the practice of science itself. Introduction Talk about “practice” pervades the contemporary historiography of science. In one sense, that focus has deep roots: one can find sources in continental history and philosophy of science,2 in Marxism,3 or even in the “interstitial academy” at Harvard that helped form Thomas Kuhn.4 (Despite the attention to paradigms, “practice” appears close to forty times in Structure, with Kuhn insisting that an accurate “concept of science” could come only from close study of the “research activity” of scientists.)5 Nonetheless, the term “practice” itself did not become a common analytical concept in Anglo-American historical studies of science until the mid-1970s to early 1980s, when its usage began to rise precipitously (see Figure 1). Since 2000, almost 40% of research articles in Isis have contained five or * Daniel J.

J. (2006, June). Scientific Biography: History of Science by Another Means. Isis, 97(2), 322-329. Available from the JSTOR website: http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.1086/504738 Scientific Biography: History of Science by Another Means? By Mary Jo Nye* ABSTRACT Biography is one of the most popular categories of books—and indeed the most popular category among nonfiction books, according to one British poll. Thus, biography offers historians of science an opportunity to reach a potentially broad audience. This essay examines approaches typical of different genres of scientific biography, including histo- rians’ motivations in their choices of biographical subject and their decisions about strat- egies for reconstruction of the biographical life. While historians of science often use biography as a vehicle to analyze scientific processes and scientific culture, the most compelling scientific biographies are ones that portray the ambitions, passions, disappoint- ments, and moral choices that characterize a scientist’s life. AMES ATLAS, a biographer and the editor of the Penguin Lives Series, writes in the J New York Times Book Review of a rainy afternoon leisurely spent in a London bookshop, where he was “stunned by the sheer profusion of ‘lives,’ as the British call biographies.” Biographies of Churchill lined an entire back wall, surrounded by shelves of biographies of people unknown or unfamiliar to Atlas.

Shank Frontmatter More information THE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY OF SCIENCE volume 2 Medieval Science This volume in the highly respected Cambridge History of Science series is devoted to the history of science in the Middle Ages from the North Atlantic to the Indus Valley. Medieval science was once universally dismissed as nonexistent – and sometimes it still is. This volume reveals the diversity of goals, contexts, and accomplishments in the study of nature during the Middle Ages. Organized by topic and culture, its essays by distinguished scholars offer the most comprehensive and up-to-date history of medieval science currently available. Intended to provide a balanced and inclusive treatment of the medieval world, contributors consider scientific learning and advancement in the cultures associated with the Arabic, Greek, Latin, and Hebrew languages. Scientists, historians, and other curious readers will all gain a new appreciation for the study of nature during an era that is often misunderstood. David C. Lindberg is Hilldale Professor Emeritus of the History of Sci- ence and past director of the Institute for Research in the Humanities at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He has written or edited a dozen books on topics in the history of medieval and early-modern science, includ- ing The Beginnings of Western Science (1992). He and Ronald L. Numbers have previously coedited God and Nature: Historical Essays on the Encounter between Christianity and Science (1986) and When Science and Christianity Meet (2003).
