Physicists regularly invoke universal laws, like those of motion and electromagnetism, to explain events. Biological and medical scientists have no such laws. How then do they acquire a reliable body of knowledge about biological organisms and human disease? One way is by repeatedly returning to, manipulating, observing, interpreting, and reinterpreting certain subjects--such as flies, mice, worms, or microbes--or, as they are known in biology, "model systems." Across the natural and human sciences, other disciplinary fields have developed canonical examples that have played a

The central aim of this interdisciplinary book is to make visible the intentionality behind the ’forgetting’ of European women’s contributions during the period between the two world wars in the context of politics, culture and society. It also seeks to record and analyse women’s agency in the construction and reconstruction of Europe and its nation states after the First World War, and thus to articulate ways in which the writing of women’s history necessarily entails the rewriting of everyone’s history. By showing that the erasure of women’s texts fr
