The History and Heritage of Scientific and Technological Information Systems
Emphasis for the second conference on the history of information science systems was on scientific and technical information systems in the period from the Second World War up through the early 1990s. These proceedings present the papers of historians of science and technology, information scientists, and scientists in other fields on a wide range of topics: informatics in chemistry; biology and medicine; information developments in multinational, industrial, and military settings; biographical studies of pioneering individuals; and the transformation of information systems and formats in the twentieth century.
Scientific Babel
Today, the language of science is English. But the dominance of this particular language is a relatively recent phenomenon - and far from a foregone conclusion. In a sweeping history that takes us from antiquity to the modern day, Michael D. Gordin untangles the web of politics, money, personality and international conflict that created the monoglot world of science we now inhabit. Beginning with the rise of Latin, Gordin reveals how we went on to use (and then lose) Dutch, Italian, Swedish and many other languages on the way, and sheds light on just how significant language is in the nationalistic realm of science - just one word mistranslated into German from Russian triggered an inflammatory face-off between the two countries for the credit of having discovered the periodic table. Intelligent, revealing and full of compelling stories, Scientific Babel shows how the world has shaped science just as much as science has transformed the world.

Chemiker im "Dritten Reich"
Die Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh) wurde 1949 gegründet und ist heute mit über 30.000 Mitgliedern, vorrangig aus Hochschulen und Industrie, die größte kontinentaleuropäische chemische Gesellschaft. Ihre im 19. Jahrhundert gegründeten Vorgängerorganisationen, die Deutsche Chemische Gesellschaft (DChG) und der Verein Deutscher Chemiker (VDCh), wirkten als die Motoren der so erfolgreichen Chemie in Deutschland und sind Teil des Erbes der GDCh. Dessen dunkle Seite begann man erst ab 2001 zu untersuchen. Bis dahin sorgten auch in diesem Bereich unserer Gesellschaft existierende Kontinuitäten dafür, dass der Mantel des Schweigens über Leben und Wirken der männerbestimmten Verbä...
