Modeling the Possible
Models are used to explore possibilities across all scientific fields.

Intellectual Property and the Design of Nature
Intellectual Property and the Design of Nature brings together scholars from different disciplines to reflect on the historical connections between intellectual property law and nature. It casts a new light on this relationship and demonstrates the central position nature occupies across the whole discipline.
Narrative Science
Narrative Science examines the use of narrative in scientific research over the last two centuries. It brings together an international group of scholars who have engaged in intense collaboration to find and develop crucial cases of narrative in science. Motivated and coordinated by the Narrative Science project, funded by the European Research Council, this volume offers integrated and insightful essays examining cases that run the gamut from geology to psychology, chemistry, physics, botany, mathematics, epidemiology, and biological engineering. Taking in shipwrecks, human evolution, military intelligence, and mass extinctions, this landmark study revises our understanding of what science is, and the roles of narrative in scientists' work. This title is also available as Open Access.
