{"product_id":"thomas-huxley-paul-white-9780521640190","title":"Thomas Huxley: Making the 'Man of Science'","description":"This book examines the persona of the \"man of science\" in the Victorian period as it was shaped by Thomas Huxley, the leading British naturalist and notorious popularizer of Darwinian theory. It demonstrates how the scientific practitioner was regarded as a moral and religious figure; simultaneously considered to be the epitome of the secular, professional scientist. Breaking with traditional biographies, this fascinating portrait treats Huxley as the consummate British \"man of science\" and reflects on the historical significance of scientific authority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul White\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521640199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521640190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Paul White","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43946731897087,"sku":"9780521640190","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3cd253bc-6e0a-4a36-95e1-042ea5734784.jpg?v=1681514819","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thomas-huxley-paul-white-9780521640190","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
