Employing a transnational, diachronic perspective informed by historical semantics, this volume traces the conceptual history of the basic–applied distinction from the nineteenth century to today, taking stock of European developments alongside comparative case studies from the United States and China. It shows how an older dichotomy of pure and applied science was reconceived in response to rapid scientific progress and then further transformed by the geopolitical circumstances of the postwar era.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmContributor: David Kaldewey (Edited by), Désirée Schauz (Edited by)Genre: HistoryBook Series: European Conceptual HistoryTopic: Science Nature & MathAuthor: David KaldeweyRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
