This book brings together some of Griesemer's most significant contributions for the first time, making it widely accessible in a single collection. Throughout his career James Griesemer has created an intellectual scaffold for major advances in the history and philosophy of biology. His analyses of boundary objects, units of selection, reproducers, models, and scaffolds have served and continue to serve as sites of innovation for philosophers, historians, and biologists. Griesemer's oeuvre does not form a mere collection of important essays on disparate and disconnected topics. His works are best understood as units in a large philosophical puzzle, amounting to an overarching vision of how humans understand life and use that understanding for intervention, which in turn is grounded in a highly sophisticated historical and scientific understanding of the research practices in question. With edits, comments, and an in-depth introduction, this book is of great interest to historians and philosophers of biology as well as science in general.
Rachel A. Ankeny is Professor and Chair in the Philosophy Group at Wageningen University, The Netherlands, and Affiliate Professor in History and Philosophy, School of Humanities at the University of Adelaide, Australia. Her main research interests are in philosophy and history of biological and biomedical sciences, bioethics, and food ethics. She is currently the Editor-in-Chief for Studies in History and Philosophy of Science, and was co-founder of the Society of Philosophy of Science in Practice (SPSP) which seeks to promote greater engagement of philosophers of science with scientific practices through building a collaborative philosophical community open to scholars and practitioners employing diverse disciplinary and methodological approaches.
Michael R. Dietrich is a Professor in the History and Philosophy of Science Department at the University of Pittsburgh. His research focuses on the history and philosophy of modern biology, especially scientific controversies. He has co-edited several books, including most recently, Nature Remade: Engineering Life from Gene Drives to Gaia (University of Chicago Press, 2021). He is also the series editor for the Historiography of Science major reference work series with Springer.
Sabina Leonelli is professor of philosophy and history of science and technology at the Technical University of Munich, where she co-directs the Ethical Data Initiative and the Public Science Lab. Until 2024 she was the Director of the Exeter Centre for the Study of the Life Sciences at the University of Exeter, where she now holds an honorary professorship. Her research investigates the roles played by technology, models, data and collaborative methods within the life sciences and public health. She aims to contribute to an understanding of knowledge production that can support equitable, responsible, engaged, and sustainable research practices.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
