Description

Located on the Bay of Fundy, the St. Andrews Biological Station is Canada's oldest permanent marine research institution. A Century of Maritime Science reviews the fisheries, environmental, oceanographic, and aquaculture research conducted over the last hundred years at St. Andrews from the perspective of the participating scientists. Introductory essays by two leading historians of science situate the work at St. Andrews within their historical context. With topics including the contributions of women to the early study of marine biology in Canada; the study of scallops, Atlantic salmon, and paralytic shellfish poisoning; and the development of underwater camera technology, A Century of Maritime Science offers a captivating mixture of first-hand reminiscences, scientific expertise, and historical analysis. Review 'This sprawling volume manages to appeal to a wide audience while contributing a coherent discussion on the role of the state in science.' - Samantha Muka - Isis Journal September 2017 'This volume offers valuable insight into the history of a public institution: its scientific achievements, political struggles for autonomy, and the logistical challenges presented by everything from fire to budget cuts.' - Jane Jenkins - Acadiensis, September 2017 ''The contributors, and editors of this important volume are to be congratulated and applauded for producing such an invaluable review of the 'Canadian Maritime Science' experience and directions that need to be pursued both now and in the future.' - David N. Nettleship - BIO - Oceans Association Newsletter Voicepipe vol 71, November 2016 About the Author Jennifer Hubbard is an associate professor in the Department of History at Ryerson University. David Wildish is a scientist emeritus at the St. Andrews Biological Station and research associate of the Huntsman Marine Science Centre.
