520 This volume explores problems in the history of science at
the intersection of life sciences and agriculture, from
the mid-eighteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Taking a
comparative national perspective, the book examines
agricultural practices in a broad sense, including the
practices and disciplines devoted to land management,
forestry, soil science, and the improvement and management
of crops and livestock. The life sciences considered
include genetics, microbiology, ecology, entomology,
forestry, and deal with US, European, Russian, Japanese,
Indonesian, Chinese contexts. The book shows that the
investigation of the border zone of life sciences and
agriculture raises many interesting questions about how
science develops. In particular it challenges one to re-
examine and take seriously the intimate connection between
scientific development and the practical goals of managing
and improving ℓ́ℓ perhaps even recreating ℓ́ℓ the living
world to serve human ends. Without close attention to this
zone it is not possible to understand the emergence of new
disciplines and transformation of old disciplines, to
evaluate the role and impact of such major figures of
science as Humboldt and Mendel, or to appreciate how much
of the history of modern biology has been driven by
national ambitions and imperialist expansion in
competition with rival nations.
