This study looks at the foundation of biological-rhythm research (today called \"chronobiology\"). The first international society (Society for the Study of Biological Rhythm) was formed by a core group of Swedish scientists, who held their first meeting in Sweden, and who dominated the activities of this Society until the 1950s, when its membership became more international. Swedish researchers were therefore important for the emergence of this interdisciplinary field and for establishing its autonomy as a distinct field. The bulk of the book is a description of the early meetings of the International Society and the papers presented at those meetings, with biographical information on some of the key Swedish researchers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jole Shackelford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1606180320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606180327\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American Philosophical Society Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 97\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Jole Shackelford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48449786642687,"sku":"9781606180327","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_06c97ef2-2777-452f-ac74-595744a7b729.jpg?v=1777264905","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/northern-light-and-northern-times-jole-shackelford-9781606180327","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
