Cornell history of science series. "It was in the nineteenth century that Germany evolved from a region that only occasionally produced a natural philosopher of the first rank to a nation that dominated the scientific world. To make this possible, talent had to be discovered, nurtured, and trained. It is this process that Dr. Olesko has studied, in microcosm, in this work" (Preface by L.

Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro de Kathryn M. Olesko reconstruye detalladamente la evolución, a lo largo del siglo XIX, del seminario de física de Franz Neumann en la Universidad de Königsberg en Prusia Oriental. Establecido durante un período de intensa reforma educativa y debate intelectual en las ciencias, el seminario formó tanto a físicos académicos como a profesores de secundaria. Como el primer seminario científico oficial en incorporar consideraciones matemáticas, el instituto de Neumann fue pionero en la integración de dos tradiciones cuantitativas en la física: la matemática y la experimental exacta.
