"Mit der Digitalisierung geht der Ruf nach freiem Zugang zu wissenschaftlichen Forschungsergebnissen und einer Öffnung des Forschungsprozesses einher. Open Access und Open Science sind die Leitbegriffe dieses Transformationsprozesses, der von den einen euphorisch begr|ßt und von den anderen heftig abgelehnt wird. Auf der Grundlage einer quantitativen Erhebung und eines reflexiven Experiments gibt das Buch Einblick in die aktuellen Debatten |ber die Chancen aber auch Hindernisse der Öffnung der Wissenschaften".

Biographical note: Eric van Santen, Jg. 1961, Dr. phil., Dipl. Soz., ist wissenschaftlicher Referent am Deutschen Jugendinstitut e. V., München, Abteilung Jugend und Jugendhilfe, Fachgruppe Strukturen der Kinder und Jugendhilfe. Dr. Liane Pluto, M.A., ist wissenschaftliche Referentin in der Abteilung Jugend und Jugendhilfe am Deutschen Jugendinstitut München und dort Mitarbeiterin im Projekt „Jugendhilfe und sozialer Wandel – Leistungen und Strukturen“. Christian Peucker, Dipl. Soz., ist wissenschaftlicher Referent in der Abteilung Jugend und Jugendhilfe am Deutschen Jugendinstitut München und dort Mitarbeiter im Projekt „Jugendhilfe und sozialer Wandel – Leistungen und Strukturen“. Long description: In diesem Buch wird, anders als in den meisten anderen Veröffentlichungen zur Pflegekinderhilfe, neben einer differenzierten Betrachtung der Inanspruchnahme ein empirischer Blick auf die Pflegekinderhilfe als Institution gerichtet. Ein Teil der fachlichen und öffentlichen Diskussionen beziehen sich auf die Rolle und die Aufgabenwahrnehmung der Dienste, die die öffentliche Verantwortung des Staates für Pflegeverhältnisse wahrnehmen. Diese agieren in einem hochkomplexen Feld, das durch sehr unterschiedliche Interessen und Erwartungen einer Vielzahl von Akteuren gekennzeichnet ist und in dem folgenreiche Entscheidungen für das Leben von Kindern und Jugendlichen getroffen werden. Quote: »Van Santen u.a. haben mit ihrem Untersuchungsbericht einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung der Pflegekinderhilfe vorgelegt.« Vera Birtsch, unsere jugend, 11+12/2020

This volume collects the earliest contributions to what is now known as quantum gravity research: the attempt to bring together quantum theory and the general theory of relativity. Covering the period from 1916-1950, it shows the beginnings of an unsolved problem that still remains as such today. The original sources are interspersed with historical essays, which together provide the first scholarly historical overview of quantum gravity in the first half of the twentieth Century. The combination of historical analysis and original sources make this a volume of interest to historians, philosophers, and physicists alike. - Edition Open Sources (EOS) pioneers a new paradigm in publishing, devoted to open access and high-quality peer review. This collaborative scholarly endeavor publishes academic editions of primary sources in the history of science in online, digital, and print formats. EOS publications present new editions of original sources with facsimile reproductions, in part also with translations, and with an introduction to the authors and the context in which they worked. The sources are typically historical books, manuscripts, documents or other material that is otherwise difficult to access. EOS a collaboration be-tween the University of Oklahoma Libraries, the Department for the History of Science of the University of Oklahoma and the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin.

In the summer of 1704, Antonio Vallisneri (1661–1730), the preeminent Italian physician and natural philosopher of his time, traveled with a “daring soul” and “trembling feet” across the “silent horrors” of the northern Apennines: down the hills south of Reggio Emilia to northern Tuscany and the western edge of his native land, the Province of Garfagnana. He then wrote a report of this adventure, the Primi Itineris per Montes Specimen Physico-Medicum (“Physico-medical example of a first journey through the mountains"), and sent it to the Royal Society of London, hoping for its publication in Philosophical Transactions. Unfortunately this did not happen and the manuscript disappeared from sight. The original draft, however, survived in the State Archive of the Italian city of Reggio Emilia where it was found in 2009. With its exceptional array of geological, medical, geographical, technical, ethnographic, and historical data, the Primi Itineris Specimen is one of the earliest and most well-documented attempts to define a systematic approach to field research. Its frantically reworked pages and anxious marginal notes offer a new and precious opportunity to understand why and how experimental data and theories in the early modern period interacted and shaped the development of many crucial debates. These include the discovering of deep-time, the comprehension of geological phenomena (such as the hydrologic cycle and the origin of mountains and fossils), the perception of man’s place in nature, the constant search for new therapeutics, the tormented and charming relation between science and religion.
