Of course for Ireland, largely in contrast to the rest of Britain, the prominence of Catholicism posed various philosophical questions regarding research. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAdelman's study examines the practical educational impact of the growth of science in these communities, and the impact of this on the country's economy; the role of museums and exhibitions in spreading scientific knowledge; and the role that science had to play in Ireland's turbulent political context. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAdelman challenges historians to reassess the relationship between science and society, showing that the unique situation in Victorian Ireland can nonetheless have important implications for wider European interpretations of the development of this relationship during a period of significant change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Juliana Adelman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0822966328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822966326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.53d","brand":"Juliana Adelman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47422754095359,"sku":"9780822966326","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_68aa74e8-5ccc-4e0b-bd38-d54fe2c6e04c.jpg?v=1761528004","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/communities-of-science-in-nineteenth-century-juliana-adelman-9780822966326","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
