Reviel Netz is a fine pedagogue. A ‘new’ anything will easily be understood to pretend to replace the corresponding ‘old.’ Not so here. True, Netz states that ‘I write this History of Greek Mathematics to replace that of Heath, written a century ago’ (p. 457).

These letters document exchanges with men of learning on matters of law, religion, prophecy, chemistry, and medicine, as Ranelagh’s opinion was routinely solicited on these matters. The irony, however, is that it is her very prominence that is responsible for her near invisibility. She was so well-known that she was often referred to without using her name. The Hartlib Papers abound with references to ‘that excellent lady our friend’, or ‘that noble lady’ or even just ‘my lady’ – or, in the case of Boyle, ‘a Sister of mine’ (p. 50). This evidentiary problem was exacerbated when Boyle moved inwithRanelagh in1668—because at this point, of course, theyhadnoneed to continue writing to each other, and the documentation of Ranelagh’s scientific activity becomes evenmore sparse (p. 166). The result was that for centuries this person everyone knew, to the extent that there was no need to even identify her, became the person that no one knew. DiMeo’s solution has been to employ the technique of close reading, going through all the correspondence line by line to identify the persons, ideas, and places being referenced. One particularly fruitful example is the way in which the author has unpacked the work being done by Ranelagh’s letter to Hartlib on the alchemical adept Dr. Butler and his version of the philosopher’s stone – the letter adding Ranelagh’s testimony to the description by Jan Baptist vanHelmont, and then beingmarked upbyHartlib for further circulation in his network of scribal publication (p. 118, f. 6). In producing this full-length study, and finding an innovative way to approach this multifaceted but difficult subject, DiMeo has given us a deeply researched, comprehensive, and important book, one which finally solidifies a scholarly focus on the woman who still deserves to be known as the ‘incomparable’ Lady Ranelagh.","PeriodicalId":8086,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Science","volume":"80 1","pages":"299 - 302"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41663527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sesiano explains instead that ‘in 1973, my thesis adviser, Gerald Toomer, learned of the existence of this manuscript in A. Gulchin-i Maānī’s just-published catalogue of the mathematical manuscripts in the Mashhad Shrine Library, and secured a photographic copy of it’. Secondly, in order to avoid a false reconstruction of my own itinerary: My interpretation of Old Babylonian mathematical texts ‘strictly as a historian of mathematics’ did not precede their being put into the context of school and state administration (p. 25).

At the same time, regular reports of pneumonic and bubonic plague occurred in the northern areas of Tanganyika. These events led the British colonial administration to dispatch several studies into rodent taxonomy and ecology in 1931 to determine the causes of rodent outbreaks and plague disease, and to control future outbreaks. The application of ecological frameworks to the control of rodent outbreaks and plague disease transmission in colonial Tanganyika Territory gradually moved from a view that prioritised 'ecological interrelations' among rodents, fleas and people to one where those interrelations required studies into population dynamics, endemicity and social organisation in order to mitigate pests and pestilence. This shift in Tanganyika anticipated later population ecology approaches on the African continent. Drawing on sources from the Tanzania National Archives, this article offers an important case study of the application of ecological frameworks in a colonial setting that anticipated later global scientific interest in studies of rodent populations and rodent-borne disease ecologies.</p>","PeriodicalId":8086,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Science","volume":"80 2","pages":"83-111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9269389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The exhibition carried not only bits of nuclear sciences and technologies, but also the political symbolism of the 'friendly atom' as a token of modernization. The photographs embarked on different trajectories, though all of them ended up at the training and exchange official's desk in charge of the exhibition, Argentinian physicist Arturo Cairo. The ones taken in Mexico also had a local circulation as propaganda intended to promote radioisotope applications. The two sets of images were intended to show the contrast between modernity and traditional society, but they did it from different gazes. Our paper argues that, in the case of Mexico, the photographer reinforced representations of the country which were already popularized by Hollywood for foreign and local audiences.
