This looks at the
responsibilities for science, as a discipline, and scientists, as
individuals, to society and to the scientists themselves.
This looks at what was
believed about the mechanisms of inheritance prior to Mendel and the
impact of Mendel's work on subsequent thinking in genetics and in
evolutionary theory. The experiments which identified the chromosomes
as the genetic material and how genes were localised to particular,
progressively more precise regions on them is considered, together with
subsequent developments which allowed us to reach the level of
understanding which we have today.
This looks at how
mankind's thinking regarding the human body in health and disease has
evolved over time, and how the scientific approach has been applied for
a deeper understanding of the control systems involved and how
disruptions of these may be compensated for by medical interventions.
This reviews changes in
farming techniques over time and in different regions, and how this has
affected the evolution of human societies.
