This new survey of scientific endeavor within the British Empire is the most wide-ranging yet published, examining the interconnections between science, the British Empire, and the emergence of a globalized world. It identifies and analyzes the web of scientific networks crisscrossing the British Empire through which scientific knowledge and authority were produced, circulated and legitimated, critically engaging with new ways of thinking about networked connections across space. The contributors offer a comparative perspective that surveys a variety of scientific initiatives and circuits, including networks of agronomists, anatomists, botanists, foresters, geologists, marine biologists, oceanographers and physicists. They chart the evolving practices, strategies, theoretical ideas and agendas among research scientists, technical advisers, imperial administrators, and native peoples in Africa, Australia, Britain, India and elsewhere; each chapter combines rigorous research with theoretical reflection based on the latest literature, as well as serving as a useful introduction to that literature.

Festeinband. Condition: Wie neu. x, 203 Seiten : Illustrationen ; 24 cm. Persuasive attacks have captured public interest for centuries. These attacks uniquely span the range from high level politics to celebrity scandal. Each context highlights totally different harmful behaviors, yet key strategies are employed in consistent, and surprisingly unique, ways. This book investigates the nature of persuasive attack by examining the strategies used in various cases to denigrate an individual or organization for their behavior and/or character. Beginning with a review of previous scholarly work on persuasive attack, this book then explicates Benoit's Theory of Persuasive Attack, and utilizes the theory to illuminate case studies from a variety of contexts including memes, political cartoons, selfies, documentaries, PAC advertisements, presidential debates, international relations, sports, and business. The book concludes with applications for educators, students, and scholars looking to better understand the way attack discourse functions in real world contexts. -- CONTENTS: Acknowledgments -- Part I.
