"reexamine science in the Cultural Revolution by taking seriously one of the stated goals of the time, the promotion of popular science”
評分有意思的書,特彆是關於科學教育
評分Schmalzer真是戰鬥力爆錶啊,今年又齣瞭專著講農業革命,圖書館剛到貨已經2個hold瞭...Umass在科學議題上也是戰鬥機,難道是因為靠近MIT?有定期的SF club真誘人(跑題瞭..)重點看瞭50s的科普和群眾科學運動的衝突,“龍骨”與“化石”的辯證關係和詞匯選擇很耐人尋味。群眾科學與迷信之間的移動界定同樣意味深長。
評分講“野人”那部分就還蠻有意思的
評分很有趣的角度,做term paper掃瞭四章,有時間會重讀
Peking Man”, discovered in the 1920s by an international team of scientists and miners, was deemed powerful evidence of human evolution. After the communist revolution of 1949, Peking Man also became Exhibit A in the movement to bring science to the masses. Even Mao's populist commitment to mass participation in science, however, could not erase the capacity of popular culture - represented most strikingly in legends about the Bigfoot-like Wild Man - to reshape ideas about human nature.
In this elegant and persuasive account of paleo-anthropologic development in China, Sigrid Schmalzer rewrites our understanding of the relationship between Chinese social, scientific and political cultures. She shows the ways that the emergence of the modern Chinese state rested on both scientific developments in the area of paleo-anthropology, and the ways that they were deployed to combat long-standing popular superstitions in service of new political realities. Her book successfully places Darwinian concepts in the context of popular political history and the developing Chinese nation-state, and thereby makes a valuable contribution to the knowledge and development of the human sciences in China and beyond.
