Eighty-eighth Critical Bibliography of the History of Science and

Its Cultural Influences* (To 1 January 1963)

The eighty-eighth Critical Bibliography is the ninth to be organized and published under the system of classification established in 1953. The most recently published Critical Bibli- ography was CB 87 (Isis, 53: 545-648). The present Critical Bibliography includes about 2,600 citations; it is organized into four main sections, as follows:

A-History of Science: General References and Tools

B -Science: Its History from Special Points of View

C -Histories of the Special Sciences D - Chronological Classification.

Each of these main sections is subdivided according to the scheme listed in the Table of Contents (pages 519-20, below).

The main purpose of the classification of the Critical Bibliography has always been " to satisfy the needs of historians of science in general, rather than those of historians of particular sciences," as was pointed out by Dr. George Sarton in the preface to the seventy- ninth Critical Bibliography, the last to be published by him. Thus a scholar interested in the publications that deal with, say, India will find works that deal with India in general or with any of the specific sciences in India under HS 35.1, and the student of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries will find both general surveys of that era and specific monographs on specialized subjects (such as the mathematical work of John Wallis, Harvey's studies on the circulation of the blood, or the founding of the Royal Society of London) under HS 37.

The historian who wishes to find all the works devoted to the subject of chemistry, in all its possible historical aspects, will have to

look under each relevant rubric; there are thus many more citations of books and articles dealing with the history of chemistry than merely those to be found in the sections devoted to the physical sciences under HS 22.

The aim in this Critical Bibliography is to place each citation in its most restricted position - in section D, the main chronological classification. Any work which cannot be fitted into that classification (including works that cover two or more periods) will be found in section C if it deals with a single science, or in section A if it deals with science in general.

Since no classification is perfect, the categories of this Critical Bibliography overlap, and all who use the Critical Bibliography are urged to examine all possible categories that might in any way be related to the subject of their primary concern. For instance, a study of microscopes might be listed in section C under HS 24, Biological Sciences, or in HS 26, Medicine and the Medical Sciences, or in HS 22, Physical Sciences; studies of microscopes may also appear under any one of the sub- divisions in section D (Chronological Classifi- cation). The work of Harvey would be found under HS 37, Seventeenth Century, but the reader would have to look under both e, Bio- logical Sciences, and g, Medicine.

As before, all citations have followed the style of the World List of Scientific Periodicals Published in the Years 1900-1950 (3rd ed., New York: Academic Press; London: Butter- worths Scientific Publications, 1952). This method uses capital initial letters for nouns, and small initial letters for adjectives. In general, conjunctions, articles, and prepositions are omitted. Titles consisting of a single word are not abbreviated. Articles whose titles are given in a foreign language are written in that language unless otherwise indicated. The following list contains those periodicals examined systematically. An asterisk marks entries not included in the list most recently published (Isis, 53: 545-547). A dagger indicates that this journal has not been included in CB 88.

The Critical Bibliography has been further enlarged by occasional citations kindly sent to us by the following collaborators:

Ackerknecht, E. H., Zurich Burstyn, H. L., Brandeis University Cowen, D. L., Rutgers University Feld, J., Queens College, New York Pelseneer, J., Universite Libre de Bruxelles,

Belgium Rosen, E., City College of New York Schofield, R. E., Case Institute of Technology Scriba, C. J., University of Toronto, Canada Sonnedecker, G., University of Wisconsin Taylor, R. C., Institute of Physics, University

of California, Los Angeles White, G. W., University of Illinois

In addition to the above sources of information, the Critical Bibliography is considerably augmented by reprints of journal articles, pamphlets, and books, which have been sent to the editor.

Psychoanalytic Journals

Thanks to the cooperation of Dr. Leon Bloom of the New York University the following four journals will be covered annually in the Critical Bibliography beginning with CB 89 for 1963: International Journal of Psychoanalysis, Journal of the American Psy- choanalytic Association, Psychoanalytic Quart- erly, and Psychoanalytic Review.

Associated Bibliographies Readers of Isis should be aware that the

Bulletin of the History of Medicine regularly contains a bibliography devoted to recent contributions to the history of medicine. This is equally true for recent contributions to the history of technology, the bibliography itself appearing in the journal of The Society for the History of Technology, Technology and Culture. Both bibliographies will in the future be cited as single entries under category A 2.

News of Other Journals

In 1963 two new serial publications emerged that will be of interest to students of the history of science. They are: International Archives of the History of Ideas directed by P. Dibon (University of Nimeguen) and Rich- ard Popkin (University of California, San Diego), published by Martinus Nijhoff, The Hague; Journal of the History of Philosophy edited by Richard Popkin (University of Cali- fornia, San Diego), Benson Mates (University of California, Berkeley), Salih Alich, and Her- bert W. Schneider (Harper Hall, Claremont, California), published by the University of California Press. When relevant, the contents of both series will be included in future Critical Bibliographies.

With the completion of Volume 45 the Trudy Instituta Istorii Estestvoznaniia i Tekh- niki ends regular publication. At irregular intervals in the future, collections devoted to the history of the natural sciences and technology will be issued. The plans for these anthologies, at present, seem to indicate that each of the new collections will be focused on individual themes or problems.

This year Centaurus has announced the good news that it will become a quarterly publication. We take this as a happy measure of the increasing activity in the history of science in Denmark, as elsewhere.

The absence of references to Scripta Mathe- matica in the present Critical Bibliography is a result of the fact that Volume 26, Number 1 was published in 1961 and Volume 26, Num- ber 2 in March of 1963.

* * x

Contributions to the annual Critical Bibli- ography will always be welcome. When included, critical commentary will appear over the signature of the author. All contributors are advised to give their entries in the precise form of those in the Critical Bibliography and to classify the item in question according to the scheme described in the introduction to the Critical Bibliography and given in its table of contents. Sample entries and a copy of the classification scheme for the Critical Bibli- ography are available to those contributors who write and ask for them.

In addition to those whose help has been acknowledged above, the eighty-eighth Critical Bibliography has been prepared with the assistance of Aleida Cattell, Joan Knoch, and Ruth Brewer.

CLASSICS IN SCIENCE. A course of selected reading by authorities. Introductory reading guide by E. N. Da C. Andrade. xxiii + 332 pp., biog. notes, bibl. New York: Philo- sophical Library, Inc., 1960. $6.00. This book consists of an introductory reading guide

followed by four separate parts entitled " Origin and Meaning of Science," "The Universe," "Matter and Energy," and "Science and Everyday Life," respec- tively. Each part consists of a number of relevant excerpts from the writings or lectures of scientists and philosophers from Aristotle to Dr. Bronowski linked together by a series of short explanatory pas- sages. The result is inevitably something of a pas- tiche with no particular topic treated in any depth, and the "Members" referred to in the bibliography will find themselves handicapped in their further search for knowledge by the absence of detailed references to the sources of the excerpts. With few exceptions the authors of the excerpts are either British by birth or extraction, such as Kant, "the son of a saddler of Scottish descent," or Helmholtz, "a descendent of the Quaker, William Penn."

TOULMIN, STEPHEN; JUNE GOODFIELD. The fabric of the heavens: The development of astronomy and dynamics. 285 pp., plts., figs., tbls. London: Hutchinson. New York: Harper and Brothers, 1961. $5.00. This work, written by two English historians of

science, pictures the genesis of our fundamental ideas on astronomy and dynamics. The period dealt with runs, roughly speaking, from the Babylonians to Newton. In a final chapter the subsequent development is sketched shortly but adequately. The treatment of the whole subject is remarkably clear and lucid and will not cause any difficulty to a serious reader. The authors add to the liveliness of their story by numerous quotations from the original sources, thus making it possible to check their state- ments. A single example may suffice to show how desirable this is. In a note on the " Measurement of the Circle" by Archimedes the reasoning by which the great Syracusan is said to have obtained the formula 7rr2 for the area of a circle is formulated in terms so modern that a reader of the original text will scarcely be able to recognize it. Moreover the in- sertion of this note seems hardly justified. This re- mark is not meant, however, to detract anything from the great value of the really meritorious work of the two English scholars. It is to be expected that it will stimulate and enhance the interest in the history of science. E. J. DIJKSTERHUIS

DUKE, NEVILLE; EDWARD LANCHBERRY (eds.). The saga of flight: From Leonardo da Vinci to the guided missile. 406 pp. New

York: The John Day Company, Inc., 1961. $5.95. This book is an anthology of writings on flight,

selected chiefly for their entertainment value. As an indication, the material from Leonardo to the Wright brothers takes 100 pages, including 40 pages on air- ships during and after the First World War; the exploits of airmen in the First and Second World Wars cover about 180 pages; then the odds and ends of flight account for the rest. Despite the title, missiles are not represented. Or, to apply another standard, Leonardo gets half a page of musing on the flight of birds to start things off, while 20 pages are devoted to the death of Richthofen - admittedly an enthralling story, but hardly the most significant episode in the history of flight.

Most of the excerpts are taken from readily available printed sources, although there are a few news- paper articles which are close to being original contributions. If, however, the intent of the editors is to present a coherent saga of flight in the words of the participants, they have made some curious omissions. Sir George Cayley belongs in the record somewhere, and his works are extant and accessible. The inventor of the jet engine is disregarded completely, despite his excellent autobiography.

In summary, this book is entertaining bedside reading, and it has some utility as an introduction to the history of flight for the reader who has had no previous acquaintance with the subject. It cannot be considered in any way a serious treatment of the history of aeronautics. JOHN B. RAE

HISTORY OF IRON AND STEELMAKING IN THE UNITED STATES. x + 101 pp., illus. New York: The Metallurgical Society, American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers, 1961. $5.00. This book consists of seventeen articles that ap-

peared in the Journal of Metals on various phases of the iron and steel industry. Eleven metallurgists and others in the industry were prevailed upon by the editor of the journal to write the history of their special fields of interest or involvement. Many of the articles were "done" under joint authorship. The editor, F. Weston Starratt, jointly with the Secretary of the Society, R. W. Shearman, contributed an article on the iron works of Sterling, Ringwood, and Green- wood, located near the New York-New Jersey border.

Including the article just mentioned, there are four articles on the blast furnace, four on the open hearth furnace, five on the coke industry, two on the electric furnace, one on the Bessemer converter, and one on sintering.

The 27-page coke oven series, by C. S. Finney and John Mitchell, is a tedious but informative review of the rise and decline of the beehive coke oven and the development of the by-product coke oven, which is presently used to produce nearly all of the 60 million

tons of coke used yearly in the steel industry. The early importance of the well-known Connellsville (Pa.) beehive-oven coke is emphasized. There are several good pictures of beehive ovens and operations. These articles show evidence of their authors' intelligent use of some, at least, of the 47 items listed in the bibliography.

The rest of the articles are informative only when the authors are writing from personal experience, although even this information is obscured by the jargon of shop-talk. The writing throughout the book is poor. The articles are studded with absurdi- ties, inconsistencies, and references to the crude and inefficient work done by our quaint predecessors. The book is a dreary example of what too often happens when technical people and technical magazine editors set out to write history.

There is nothing in the book on the forging and rolling of steel, but since the scholar will discover within a few minutes after picking it up that it is not really a book at all, and that the title is a presumptuous overstatement, any discussion of omissions is beside the point.

In the preface is stated the hope that the book will be welcomed to the home and office libraries of ironmakers and steelmakers, that "students will find the material helpful in their studies of this most important of American industries," and that perhaps " the historian of Americana will learn something new in searching through these pages." Yes, let us leave the book to the " historians of Americana."

" There are two schools of thought on the identity of the Linear A language. One maintains that it is Indo-European; the other that it is Semitic.

" The case for Semitic has hitherto rested almost entirely on the Hagia Triada tablets which, though far more numerous than other groups of 'A' tablets, consist of jejune lists without sentence structure. To meet this need we would do well to turn to the dedicatory formulas inscribed on cultural objects found throughout eastern and central Crete ....

"We are now in the second phase of determining the Linear A language. The first phase began in 1957 with the Semitic identification of ' Minoan A'; the present study shows that the language is West Semitic, of the Phoenician type. Further refinements lie ahead." W. H. STAHL

W. C. Hayes, the curator of Egyptian art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, informs the reader that "our knowledge of the ancient Egyptians [is] increasing at the awe-inspiring rate of almost seven hundred books, articles, and excavation reports each year." The present volume is designed to absorb and to concentrate this flood into carefully encapsu- lated paragraphs on all things Egyptian from Abu Simbel to Zoser. With pictures on almost every page and indexes of names, events, and texts, the volume has attractive and useful qualities, but scholars will miss the total absence of bibliographical information.

Vol. III: From Euripides to Alex- andria. Translated by R. C. Knight. 199 pp., illus.; 248 pp., illus.; 288 pp., illus. New York: The Macmillan Company, 1962. In this general survey of Greek culture, readers

of Isis will be pleased to discover that a reasonable amount of space has been devoted to an assessment of the scientific achievement of the classical world, and that this has been set into a nicely balanced discussion of traditionally acknowledged accomplishments in philosophy, literature, art and the organization of the state. Thus, under the rubric of "Men and Gods" (I, 132-149), the author discusses the " artifi- cer gods " and the technological traditions of Homeric Greece. In Volume II, two of the ten chapters are directly devoted to the scientific story -" The Birth of Science: The Explanation of the World: Thales and Democritus" (54-74) and "The Position of Medical Science in the Fifth Century: Hippocrates" (146-172)--but two additional chapters dealing with Herodotus and Socrates may be justly considered as indirect contributions to the same narrative. The third volume adds to the discussion of science, as follows: "Aristotle and the World of Living Crea- tures " (114-133), " The Reigns of Books: Alexandria, its Library and Museum" (170-180), "Alexandrian Astronomy: Aristarchus of Samos" (181-188), "Ge- ography: Pytheas and Eratosthenes" (189-197), and "Medical Science. A Word on Archimedes. Hero and his Steam-Engine" (198-207). The books are handsomely bound, with superb illustrations and plates. HARRY WOOLF

The first edition of Ver Eecke's French translation

of the works of Archimedes appeared in 1921. It was generally recognized as excellent and absolutely reliable. The present new edition is even more valuable because it also contains a translation and notes on the commentaries of Eutocios on "Sphere and Cylinder," " Measurement of the Circle," and " Equi- librium of Planes." The first commentary contains valuable information concerning the construction of two mean proportionals between two given line seg- ments. The second commentary contains examples of multiplications of large numbers written in Greek letters. The translations and footnotes are excellent.

period. In the majority of cases, where minimal biographical information was readily available it is given, but many articles provide nothing but a notice of the subject's works. Only for a few major figures is there more than a sentence or two of information. The source of each article is indicated.

Twenty-eight leaves reproduce notes made for use in the latter work) they were previously considered fragments of an early draft).

greatest man of letters and conservative moralist of his time, was in fact a hypocrite. In 823 he wrote an inscription in which he pointed out the lethal consequences of taking alchemical elixirs of immortality (see Ho Ping-yii and J. Needham, " Elixir poisoning in medieval China," Janus, 1959, 48: 229), but there is an early statement, often challenged, that his death in the next year was due to that very cause. Kung's case is based on innuendo and irrelevancy, and the assumption that the issue is hypocrisy, and contributes very little to a final solution of the problem. N. SIVIN

of the identities, sources, testing, and applications of about eight hundred of the most important drugs used in modern Chinese medicine, was compiled for broad pedagogical and reference use in 1958. In addition to detailed articles on individual substances, about one-fifth of animal or mineral origin, it contains a general introduction with a history of the materia medica and a discussion of the chemical content of simples, an appendix on microscopy, tables of drugs arranged by medical function and species, a bibliography, and an index. It is a useful work for casual reference, in many ways a great advance over previous sources. Perhaps most interesting is the material on preparation and manufacture of traditional drugs in modern China. A number of mistakes

Although Chinese are cited by personal name

(ming) in histories and reference works, they are very commonly referred to in less formal writings by their alternate names (tzu and hao; Sun Yat-sen's "real" name, for instance, is Sun Wen, but it is very seldom used). The problem of identification is usually irksome, since there is no general pseudonym index of reasonably large scope.

This book is extremely useful, despite the limitation its title indicates, since many historical figures, scientists included, were noted for their calligraphy

or painting; in fact a minority of those indexed could be called professional artists. In Vol. I, all the alternate names of over 16,000 persons are listed under their formal names. In Vol. II, under each alternate name are found formal name, native place, dynasty, type of art for which known, and exact dates where available.

ADAMS, PERCY G. Travelers & travel liars 1660-1800. x + 292 pp., illus., notes, index. Los Angeles: University of California Press, 1962. $5.95. A fascinating account of the travel literature of

the Enlightenment which attempted to deceive the reader with a completely false voyage, or, in narrating an authentic expedition, introduced so many lies and hoaxes as to bring about the same effect. The interplay of pride, prejudice and money, among other motives, unfolds as " fireside" traveler, plagiarist and plain deceiver are reviewed with care, style and charm that almost belie the fine, supporting scholarship. Perhaps in no other area of its manifold interests is the naivete of the Age of Reason so apparent as in its willingness to accept the Gullivers of its day - and Swift's invention was, after all, an acknowledged fiction and a parody! Mr. Adams has done well to remind us that travelers -such as John Lederer - were denied this truth, while eminent scientists like Maupertuis could believe that " dwarves retired to the North Pole, the giants to the South," and Buffon, that nine-foot Patagonians were possible, but not Pygmies.

sixty years petroleum engineering consultant and "practical" geologist throughout Europe, Russia, Asia, Spain, North and South America. Like another engineer, Herbert Hoover, he used his travel time to write widely known technical books. The present delightful book, by one of the last of the " old guard " of independent, international oil men, consists of engineering and personal experiences arranged in geographical rather than chronological order. Although less personally biographical, it has distinct resem- blances to Memoirs, 1874-1920, by Beeby-Thompson's friend Herbert Hoover. G. W. WHITE

This issue contains the following articles of interest: The nuclear atom; Sir Ernest Rutherford; Teflon: Roy J. Plunkett; X-Rays: W. C. Roentgen; Freon: Thomas Midgley and Albert L. Henne; Lead tetra- ethyl: Thomas Midgley, Jr., T. A. Boyd, and C. A. Hochwalt; Aluminum metallurgy: Charles Martin Hall; The discovery of oxygen isotopes: W. F. Giauque and H. L. Johnston; Radioactivity; Henri Becquerel; The Bohr atomic model: Niels Bohr; Deuterium: Harold C. Urey; The neutron identified: Sir James Chadwick. Each presents in the words of the dis- coverer a brief account of an important discovery in science. In contradiction to the title of the series, most were the results of happy accidents (e. g., teflon) or of normal extensions of work already in progress (e.g., alpha scattering). The accounts are casually interesting, but too brief to be very useful in themselves. R. SIEGFRIED

from a three-year research project at the Harvard Business School on the development of advanced weapons. It is based upon comprehensive historical case studies of 12 weapon system programs and seven commercial product developments and upon more limited investigations of several specific research questions. The study is directed toward a dual audience. On the one hand, it deals with practical problems of interest to government and industry officials responsible for the approval, planning, and execution of weapons programs. At the same time it explores questions of risk, uncertainty, innovation, business strategy, and motivation which concern social scientists, especially those studying the processes of technological change."

Raikov, described here as "the Nestor of Soviet historians of biology," came to the subject late in life, as a result of a frightful episode that is tactfully ignored by this jubilee biography - tactfully, not with respect to Raikov, but to those who subjected him in 1930 to a campaign of savage vilification, picturing him as a major conservative of Soviet pedagogy. Actually, he had been until that time Russia's leading authority on the teaching of the natural sciences, one of the pioneers who stressed field study and laboratory work. A scholarly by- product of this period had been a series of articles that constituted a history of scientific education in Russia. In the thirties he turned his attention to the history of science itself, producing first a history of the Copernican heresy in Russia. (Was this his subtle reply and warning to the yahoos?) His major work in the history of biology followed, most notably a four-volume study of Russian precursors of Darwin (1947-1959). Two years ago he finished a work on the life and times of Karl von Baer. Still at work when this article went to press, Raikov certainly deserves our congratulations on a richly productive life. D.

Index to the Eighty-eighth

Critical Bibliography

This index contains all the personal names appearing in the Critical Bibliography, with the exception of reviewers; it includes authors, editors, translators and the subjects of works cited. Some names, especially those of persons living in the Middle Ages, may appear under several forms. We have tried to render the index more useful by listing names under their most common forms, with a preference for Anglicized forms over other vernaculars (e.g., Pliny rather than Plinio, or Pline; Euclid, rather than Euklid, Euclides, or Euclide). Readers are urged, however, to look under all the various generally-used versions. We have tried to harmonize various systems of transliteration, but full reliance should not be placed on this. In general Russian names are transliterated according to the Library of Congress system (with omission of diacritical marks).

Bold-face page numbers indicate that a work about the person appears on that page; light- face numbers, a work written, edited, or translated by him. This index was prepared with the assistance of Louise Coleman, Ruth Brewer, and Joan Knoch.
