Book Description
Der Band beleuchtet die vergessene Identität der Medizin als moderne akademische Disziplin. Viele Arbeiten in der Geschichte und Soziologie der Wissenschaft und Medizin haben diese Identität mit dem Fokus auf die Medizin als modernen Beruf überschattet. Dieses Buch untersucht die Identitätsarbeit der Medizin von den Anfängen der modernen Forschungsuniversität bis zu den aktuellen Diskursen über Wissenschaft und Medizin mithilfe einer historischen Soziologie und unter Verwendung einer begriffsgeschichtlichen Perspektive. Es zeigt, wie wichtige Institutionen und Grundkonzepte der Medizin entstanden sind, und legt ihre kulturellen Ursprünge offen. Es wird aufgezeigt, wie die Idee der Biomedizin heute die enge Verbindung zwischen Laborforschung und Aussichten auf eine bessere Gesundheitsversorgung bedeutet.

Book Description
In an era when pressing environmental problems make collaboration across the divide between sciences and arts and humanities essential, this book presents the results of a collaborative analysis by an anthropologist and a physicist of four key junctures between science, society, and environment. The first focuses on the systemic bias in science in favour of studying esoteric subjects as distinct from the mundane subjects of everyday life; the second is a study of the fire-climax grasslands of Southeast Asia, especially those dominated by Imperata cylindrica (sword grass); the third reworks the idea of ‘moral economy’, applying it to relations between environment and society; and the fourth focuses on the evolution of the global discourse of the culpability and responsibility of climate change. The volume concludes with the insights of an interdisciplinary perspective for the natural and social science of sustainability. It argues that failures of conservation and development must be viewed systemically, and that mundane topics are no less complex than the more esoteric subjects of science. The book addresses a current blind spot within the academic research community to focusing attention on the seemingly common and mundane beliefs and practices that ultimately play the central role in the human interaction with the environment. This book will benefit students and scholars from a number of different academic disciplines, including conservation and environment studies, development studies, studies of global environmental change, anthropology, geography, sociology, politics, and science and technology studies.

Book Description
This timely new book outlines a whole-school approach to embedding a sustainable model of teaching and learning that puts the learner at the heart of the system. It provides an entire framework for ensuring all students achieve above their expectations; incorporating school vision, teacher professional development, assessment models, school culture, leadership and management, and core classroom practices. It takes what the current research suggests does – and does not – work and builds it into a practical approach that has been tried, tested and proven to work. Each section incorporates the research, a model of how this can be embedded across a school and then a training section that allows senior leaders in schools to teach the skill-set to others to ensure it can be embedded and reviewed. Covering all aspect of teaching and learning including curriculum design, teacher practices, assessment and leadership, the book features: a clear planning framework that is easy to implement; subject based case studies to exemplify good practice; diagrams to clarify and consolidate information; training activities throughout each chapter, also available to download at www.routledge.com/9780415831178. Designed to be used as a training tool for both new and established teachers, this book is essential reading for senior leaders that want to equip their teachers with the skills and knowledge to create a school of outstanding classrooms.
