Scientific and Medical Knowledge Production, 1796-1918: Volume II: Humanity

Editat de Rob Boddice
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mai 2023
This volume foregrounds humanity (in the sense of compassion or sympathy), which often supplied the motivation for medical experiment and scientific innovation. Though the results of experiments could not be known in advance, often the stated goal was the reduction of suffering, the cure of disease, or the easement of life. Increasingly, critics accused practitioners of hiding hubris behind their purported humanity and questioned whether an increasingly professional scientific community could retain its grip on the meaning of compassion.
