Science, Gender, and Power: Women Scientists Who Defied the Odds
"Science, Gender, and Power: Women Scientists Who Defied the Odds" is a compelling and inspiring book that chronicles the extraordinary lives and groundbreaking achievements of female scientists throughout history. From Ada Lovelace, the world's first computer programmer, to Rosalind Franklin, whose work was essential to the discovery of DNA's structure, the book showcases the remarkable contributions of women in science. It highlights their tenacity, resilience, and courage in a male-dominated field, where they often faced discrimination, sexism, and biases. Written by Ann Hibner Koblitz, a renowned historian of science and gender, the book offers an in-depth analysis of the social and cult...
HSF1 and Molecular Chaperones in Biology and Cancer
Protein homeostasis, or “Proteostasis”, lies at the heart of human health and disease. From the folding of single polypeptide chains into functional proteins, to the regulation of intracellular signaling pathways, to the secreted signals that coordinate cells in tissues and throughout the body, the proteostasis network operates to support cell health and physiological fitness. However, cancer cells also hijack the proteostasis network and many of these same processes to sustain the growth and spread of tumors. The chapters in this book are written by world experts in the many facets of the proteostasis network. They describe cutting-edge insights into the structure and function of the ma...

Management
The MIT Sloan School of Management, as conceived by the legendary General Motors chairman Alfred P. Sloan, was founded in 1952 to draw on the scientific and technical resources of MIT and approach the problems of management with the rigorous research practices for which MIT was famous. Fifty years later, the Sloan School gathered international leaders in business and management, MIT faculty, students, and alumni to address again the basic principles that should guide business and management. This book presents the papers prepared by student-faculty teams, speeches by business and world leaders, and summaries of the discussions from this special convocation; taken together, they offer a guide...

Vitalism and the Scientific Image in Post-Enlightenment Life Science, 1800-2010
Vitalism is understood as impacting the history of the life sciences, medicine and philosophy, representing an epistemological challenge to the dominance of mechanism over the last 200 years, and partly revived with organicism in early theoretical biology. The contributions in this volume portray the history of vitalism from the end of the Enlightenment to the modern day, suggesting some reassessment of what it means both historically and conceptually. As such it includes a wide range of material, employing both historical and philosophical methodologies, and it is divided fairly evenly between 19th and 20th century historical treatments and more contemporary analysis. This volume presents a significant contribution to the current literature in the history and philosophy of science and the history of medicine.
