This volume is divided according to moral themes within medicine and science. The sources represent dominant notes within the culture of knowledge production that capture the moral/emotional/social justification for the making of expertise through experiment. This volume focuses on curiosity, given as the scientist’s chief motivating factor for the finding of new facts, and as an essential character trait for anyone entering the scientific life. It is also the source of controversy and criticism, since curiosity alone increasingly looked amoral at best and immoral at worst, as the nineteenth century wore on.

The world's first comprehensive handbook of mindset research. This handbook was created to help the field of mindset see and know itself from multiple perspectives, and to help readers gain a sense of the collective wisdom that exists across the mindset field as a whole. It includes a series of research papers that review the history of mindset, and that review mindsets many different definitions, theories, typologies, and education opportunities. It also includes papers that critically examine the existence of dominant paradigms, and explore if the mindset field is ready to embrace a “mindset shift” and a “paradigm shift” in the way mindset is understood and approached. This series of papers include: 1. A “field map” of the field of mindset 2. A short history of mindset 3. What is a mindset? 100 definitions from the field 4. A systematic review of mindset theory 5. Mindset types: A systematic review and meta-analysis 6. Mindset education: A review of existing learning opportunities 7. Dominant paradigms in the field of mindset 8. Is it time for a “mindset shift” and a “paradigm shift” in the way we understand and approach mindset? This handbook is for anyone with an interest in the role mindset plays in their lives and the world. This includes researchers, practitioners, psychologists, teachers, parents, coaches, facilitators, designers, trainers, therapists, academics, activists, influencers, change makers, systems change practitioners, and more. You are invited to deepen your understanding of mindset from multiple perspectives, and consider how you can be the change and be the transformation as an engaged participant in the mindset field.

Rob Boddice explores the transnational defence of medical experimentation in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

This volume showcases doubt from within the scientific community itself. These sources dwell upon the moments at which ideas became challenged, when facts were revealed to be fiction, and when knowns reverted to unknowns. But the focus is not the ideas and facts themselves, but on the ways in which scientists adjusted themselves to new landscapes of uncertainty in their particular cultural and professional practices.

Maximiliano Korstanje presents an overview and analysis of the work of the Argentinian sociologist and physician, José Ingenieros (1877–1925). In fact, José Ingenieros was a seminal scholar who contributed directly to the formation of sociology in Latin America. Born in Palermo, Italy Ingenieros grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He trained in medicine, psychiatry, sociology and philosophy; he devoted much of his life to addressing societal challenges such as mass migration, imperialism, marginality, criminality and social identity. Korstanje takes in turn the key areas of Ingenieros’s work and examines how his thinking can be brought to bear on the social challenges of today. In particular his work on mass migration and the “Other” have echoes in the problems facing many countries in the early twenty-first century. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students looking to better understand this key figure in Argentinian – and Latin American – sociology in the early twentieth century.

Increasingly, critics accused practitioners of hiding hubris behind their purported humanity and questioned whether an increasingly professional scientific community could retain its grip on the meaning of compassion. This volume presents a set of responses to this criticism and others, showing the extent to which the lived-experience of scientific practice became a justification in and of itself for the expression of social, political and cultural authority. Bare knowledge, as it was presented, came with an enormous social valuation. These sources show how that authority changed and grew over time.

This volume foregrounds humanity (in the sense of compassion or sympathy), which often supplied the motivation for medical experiment and scientific innovation. Though the results of experiments could not be known in advance, often the stated goal was the reduction of suffering, the cure of disease, or the easement of life. Increasingly, critics accused practitioners of hiding hubris behind their purported humanity and questioned whether an increasingly professional scientific community could retain its grip on the meaning of compassion.

This collection pieces together a wealth of material in order to get inside the experience of scientific practice in the long nineteenth century. It aims to reach, or perhaps to facilitate, an understanding of the ways in which the value of scientific knowledge was produced, lived and challenged. The new turn to the history of experience suggests a logic to the compilation of material that is completely original: the sources are not selected according to the historical success of an idea or experiment, but for the ways in which scientific endeavour loaded knowledge claims with political or moral value, coupled with attendant practical justifications. Thus, 'bad ideas' sit alongside 'good'; now discountenanced practices take their place among the revered. In sum, they reveal an experimental culture that was not merely orientated toward cold knowledge or intellectual output, but defined by shifting sets of affective practices and procedures and the making of expertise out of the lived experience of doing science.
