Study a transformative century through descriptions and debate of its scientific and technical achievements.
The “long” nineteenth century is an era characterized by industrial, technical, and social revolution. With a changing society came new approaches to the study of natural history, physics, mathematics, medicine, and public health.
The rise of secular culture, the transportation and information revolution, the competition for empire, modern warfare, and modern notions of the self and the body are all topics with links to "pure science." Science, Technology and Medicine, Part I helps researchers place science, along with medicine and technology, in the mainstream of historical study.
The interdisciplinary collection consists primarily of two components:
• Journals track the connection between major episodes in the history of science, specifically in general science, medicine, biology, entomology, botany, chemistry, physics, mathematics, geology, paleontology, and technology
• Monographs in the hard and social sciences touch upon the history of anthropology, archeology, ecology, public health, sanitation, geography, oceanography, astronomy, industrial and battlefield technology, and the philosophy of science
Major topics covered in the development of science in this period include:
• Electricity and Physics
• The Darwinian Revolution and Global Reception of Evolution
• Civil Engineering
• Mathematics
• The Social History of American Medicine
Nineteenth Century Collections Online is the most ambitious efforts of its kind ever undertaken, providing full-text, fully searchable content from a wide range of primary sources. Selected with the guidance of an international team of expert advisors, these primary sources are invaluable for a wide range of academic disciplines and areas of study, providing never-before-possible research opportunities for one of the most studied historical periods.
Science, Technology and Medicine, Part I enables researchers to trace the emergence and dissemination of scientific ideas during the "long" nineteenth century that preceded 1800 and extended to 1925. The archive runs both wide and deep to navigate the borders between the hard and social sciences. Researchers will be able to track debates within the journals and corresponding monograph publications. Particularly in the sciences, journal publications are often the key venue for new and original thinking.
Science, Technology, and Medicine, Part I is available on Gale's cutting-edge research platform. This state-of-the-art technology was developed using our flexible Agile approach, incorporating user testing and feedback throughout the process to ensure that we are providing the features that scholars require -- such as detailed subject indexing and metadata, textual analysis tools, personalized user accounts, and more -- for research in the digital age.
