    Late Toarcian marine gastropods from the Cleveland Basin, UK: systematics, palaeobiogeography and contribution to biotic recovery from the early Toarcian extinction event

    No full text
    As part of a study to evaluate the recovery from the early Toarcian extinction event in the Cleveland Basin, 477 new gastropod specimens were collected from mid-late Toarcian rocks of the Ravenscar section, North Yorkshire, UK. The gastropods were preserved in two modes: 1) specimens preserved with recrystallized shells, mainly in the Whitby Mudstone Formation, but also some in the Blea Wyke Sandstone Formation; 2) specimens preserved as external moulds in mineralized patches of shells in the Yellow Sandstone Member.Fil: Ferrari, Silvia Mariel.

    The Romance of Science: Essays in Honour of Trevor H. Levere

    No full text
    The Romance of Science pays tribute to the wide-ranging and highly influential work of Trevor Levere, historian of science and author of Poetry Realised in Nature, Transforming Matter, Science and the Canadian Arctic, Affinity and Matter and other significant inquiries in the history of modern science. Expanding on Levere’s many themes and interests, The Romance of Science assembles historians of science -- all influenced by Levere's work -- to explore such matters as the place and space of instruments in science, the role and meaning of science museums, poetry in nature, chemical warfare and warfare in nature, science in Canada and the Arctic, Romanticism, aesthetics and morals in natural philosophy, and the “dismal science” of economics. The Romance of Science explores the interactions between science's romantic, material, institutional and economic engagements with Nature

    Science and Culture - Inalienable Co-determinants of Human Progress: Implications for Science Education and Administration

    No full text
    Science is a process of establishing the knowledge and understandings of the principles and dynamics shaping the interaction of people among themselves and with the natural world. Culture is an integrated system of shared beliefs, norms, values, and understandings that shape the way people live and interact with each other and with the natural world. These beliefs, norms, values, and understandings are in turn shaped by people’s perception of their natural world. Philosophically therefore, both science and culture, presently and potentially, have the power to shape how people interact with each other and with nature. In this paper, the author explores the components of the common boundaries of science and culture as tools for human interaction among themselves and with their life-world. The author then makes a case for the inalienable mutual influences of science and culture, as co-determinants and co-drivers of human progress. Implications of this co-determinism for science education and administration are also explored
