The occasion of its publication is his seven tieth birthday - 4 November 1985. Its contents are a reflection - or so it is hoped - of his own interests, and they indicate at the same time his influence on subjects he has pursued for some forty years. Born in Brisbane, Australia, Alistair Cameron Crombie took a first degree in zoology at the University of Melbourne in 1938, after which he moved to Je sus College, Cambridge. There he took a doctorate in the same subject (with a dissertation on population dynamics - foreshadowing a later interest in the history of Darwinism) in 1942. By this time he had taken up a research position with the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries in the Cambridge Zoological La boratory, a position he left in 1946, when he moved to a lectureship in the his tory and philosophy of science at University College, London. H. G. Andrewa ka and L. C. Birch, in a survey of the history of insect ecology (R. F. Smith, et al. , History of Entomology, 1973), recognise the importance of the works of Crombie (with which they couple the earlier work of Gause | 出版日期 | Book 1985 | 关键词 | Artes; Thomas Hobbes; education; eighteenth century; enlightenment; history of ideas; natural philosophy; p | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-5119-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-8763-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-5119-8Series ISSN 0066-6610 Series E-ISSN 2215-0307 | issn_series | 0066-6610 | copyright | Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, Dordrecht 1985 |
