J.H. Woodger and the emergence of supra-empirical orders of discussion in early twentieth century biology

Creator:: Allen, Marshall William
Abstract:: This investigation attempts to demonstrate that the development of the early 20th century biological enterprise involved a striving for a unifying theoretical perspective. A skeletal substantiation of this is given by an overview of early 20th century biology in which some biologists began recognizing a multiplicity of different orders of...

William Keith Brooks (1848-1908) : a case study in morphology and the development of American biology

Creator:: Benson, Keith Rodney
Abstract:: The major historical studies that have examined American biology have emphasized the development of experimental biology at the end of the nineteenth century. In this characterization, the descriptive branch of biology has often been treated as less than important and, in several cases, as a hindrance in the application of...

William Ernest Castle, American geneticist : a case-study in the impact of the Mendelian research program

Creator:: Taylor, H. Terry
Abstract:: In their modern context questions of heredity have come to be closely aligned with theories of evolution because all such theories require the presence of heritable variation. Thus the need for an understanding of a source of variation and a mechanism for its inheritance became very apparent with the general...

The marine biological station of San Diego : its development as related to the ideas and ideals of William Emerson Ritter (1856-1944)

Creator:: Alexander, Gail Marie
Abstract:: A number of historians of science have been involved in studying the nature of biology at the turn of the century, and the picture that they have developed describes biology during this time as a field struggling to define itself. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, biologists were...

History and analysis of the creation research society

Creator:: Elliott, William E.
Abstract:: The resurgence of creationism the past few years has been led by advocates of recent-creationism. These individuals, a minority among creationists in general, argue that the entire universe was created approximately 10,000 years ago in one six-day period of time. Recent-creationists support their position by appealing to the Genesis account...

The development of the chlorinity-salinity concept in oceanography

Creator:: Wallace, William J.
Abstract:: This study traces the historical foundations of the concept of constant ionic proportionality and the equation (Salinity [S%₀] = 1.805 Chlorinity [Cl%₀] + 0.030) which has been in general use in oceanography since 1902 until 1969 and which is based upon this constancy, The notion that the constituents present in...

The biological significance of low molecular weight RNA associated with tumor virus

Creator:: Carnegie, John William
Abstract:: RNA isolated from BAI strain A (Myeloblastosis) Avian Tumor Virus can be fractionated into two fractions on a sucrose density gradient, one of higher molecular weight and one of low molecular weight. The low molecular weight (LMW) virus RNA was found to chromatograph the same as E. coli tRNA on...
