Abstract

What happens to a profession that loses the memory of its moral independence? And what happens then to those reliant on its honor, its advocacy, its initiative? In an era of biotechnological adventure, medical audacity, ecological disruption, fiscal strain, and financial temptation, these are urgent questions for all life scientists and for all they serve .Profession of Conscience is an exposition, analysis, and application of a political-ethical tradition in, of, and for the life sciences, from molecular genetics to clinical medicine to environmental biology. The goal is avoidance of the fate of physics--the previous "super science"--whose technological transformations several generations ago so enhanced its political and economic value to governments, societies, and corporations that it lost control of its own conduct. Profession of Conscience discovers within the life sciences a long-evolving profession-specific standard for political action and activism, tracing it from conception in Hellenic and Roman imperial times, through birth and baptism in the Scientific Revolution, then through a naïvely optimistic adolescence in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and finally into a self-conscious maturity, solemnized at the Nuremberg Trials but tested ever more subtly since, even down to the present day. The protagonist is a set of ideas. The product is "life-sciences liberalism."

Abstract

The technique of imaging spectrometry has now passed its infancy and entered into a new phase of application oriented research. Advanced sensor systems (such as Nasa/JPL's AVIRIS) have become available for international research programmes (MAC Europe 1991), new imaging spectrometers are under development in several European countries or have already passed their acceptance tests, and first high spectral resolution imaging systems are already operated by private industry. On European level, the EARSEC programme of the Joint Research Centre has provided considerable financial investments for the development of an imaging spectrometer which covers the reflective and important parts of the emissive spectrum (DAIS-7915), and the European Space Agency has initiated an important airborne remote sensing campaign (EMAC 1994/95) in which imaging spectrometry will constitute one of the most important components. The increasing sensor capabilities also reflect the fact that imaging spectrometry has advanced in many application fields of earth remote sensing. Progress has been made in the development of data pre-proeessing methods, spectral signature modeling and semi-empirical approaches for retrieving surface parameters. It therefore appeared important to further disseminate information about new approaches in the application-oriented analysis of imaging spectrometry data. This volume presents the lectures of the second EUROCOURSE on imaging spectrometry which was held in November 1992 at the Joint Research Centre (a first course on "Fundamentals and Prospective Applications" of imaging spectrometry had been organised in October 1989, the lectures being published as EUROCOURSES in Remote Sensing, vol. 2).

Abstract

En 1994, des historiens des sciences de la vie ont pris conscience de l'intérêt de créer une Société afin de rassembler les énergies éparses et d'assurer la collecte, la discussion et la diffusion des travaux relatifs à l'histoire et à l'Épistémologie des Sciences de la Vie. La solution retenue a été de constituer une Société, une association déclarée selon la loi de 1901, mais à vocation internationale. Cette Société, La Société d'Histoire et d'Épistémologie des Sciences de la Vie s'est dotée d'un Bulletin correspondant à son objet, l'Histoire et l'Épistémologie des Sciences de la Vie, considérées à toutes les époques et dans toute leur étendue, c'est-à-dire y compris la biogéographie, la paléontologie ainsi que la biologie médicale. Le Bulletin d'Histoire et d'Épistémologie des Sciences de la Vie publie donc des études relatives à l’Histoire, à l’Épistémologie et à la Philosophie des Sciences de la Vie, après expertise et acceptation du comité de lecture. Il s'intéresse à l'ensemble des sciences prenant le vivant pour objet, qu'il s'agisse de sciences descriptives ou à but classificatoire comme la botanique ou la zoologie, ou de sciences plus récentes utilisant des méthodes physico-chimiques comme la biologie, l'embryologie ou la génétique moléculaire, ou encore de sciences des fonctions organiques comme la physiologie. Il n'exclut aucun des champs des sciences du vivant, y compris la paléontologie souvent rattachée à la géologie, et il s'intéresse à toute leur histoire, en étant surtout centré sur la période XVIIIe - XXe siècle. Le Bulletin existe depuis 1994 et il est édité par Kimé depuis 2006, il propose deux numéros par an. Il publie des articles sous forme de Varia, et des dossiers thématiques, pouvant provenir de contributions de colloques organisés par la Société. Il est l'une des rares revues francophones en Histoire des Sciences de la Vie, sinon la seule, reconnue par ERIH et HCERES. Les textes proposés doivent être conformes aux normes de la revue (voir Recommandations aux auteurs). Le Bulletin est essentiellement francophone, mais des articles en anglais, en italien ou en espagnol sont également les bienvenus.
