The life sciences considered include genetics, microbiology, ecology, entomology, forestry, and deal with US, European, Russian, Japanese, Indonesian, Chinese contexts. The book shows that the investigation of the border zone of life sciences and agriculture raises many interesting questions about how science develops. In particular it challenges one to re-examine and take seriously the intimate connection between scientific development and the practical goals of managing and improving – perhaps even recreating – the living world to serve human ends. Without close attention tothis zone it is not possible to understand the emergence of new disciplines and transformation of old disciplines, to evaluate the role and impact of such major figures of science as Humboldt and Mend | | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | | 关键词 | Acclimatization Experiments; Afforestation; Agricultural Entomology; Agricultural Improvement; Ecology; G | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-12185-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-36473-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-12185-7Series ISSN 1385-0180 Series E-ISSN 2215-0064 | | issn_series | 1385-0180 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015 |
