Description

Explore the complex relationship between biological sciences and social structures in this volume of the Sociology of the Sciences Yearbook. This edition, Metaphors: 18, focuses on how meaning is transferred through language and the impact of these transfers on scientific understanding. Rather than focusing solely on conceptual distinctions, this work examines the perceived functions of metaphors. It investigates how metaphors are judged as positive or negative based on the specific contexts in which they are used. The text addresses ongoing debates regarding the potential dangers and opportunities that metaphoric language presents within the sciences. By looking at the prospects and limits of meaning transfer, this book provides a deep look at the criteria used to evaluate how we communicate scientific ideas. It is an essential resource for those studying the sociology of science, historiography, and the linguistic frameworks that shape our perception of biology and society.
