Icons of Life: A Cultural History of Human Embryos In this captivating and thought-provoking book, Lynn M. Morgan delves into the history of the Carnegie Institution of Washington's project to collect thousands of embryos for scientific study, providing a unique perspective on the evolution of technology and its impact on our understanding of human development. The book tells the story of how, until the early twentieth century, most people were unaware of what human embryos looked like, but by the 1950s, embryos had become symbols of life, representing our unborn selves. Morgan explores how these specimens were transformed into social artifacts, distinct from pregnant women, and how a fetus hindered Gertrude Stein's medical career. Through this fascinating narrative, Morgan sheds light on the origins of modern origin stories and raises questions about how we determine the meaning of embryos. The book begins with the Johns Hopkins anatomy department, where the embryo collection project was first initiated, and follows its journey through Baltimore foundling homes and all the way to China.
Иконы жизни: Культурная история человеческих эмбрионов В этой увлекательной и заставляющей задуматься книге Линн М. Морган углубляется в историю проекта Вашингтонского института Карнеги по сбору тысяч эмбрионов для научных исследований, предоставляя уникальный взгляд на эволюцию технологии и ее влияние на наше понимание человеческого развития. Книга повествует о том, как до начала двадцатого века большинство людей не подозревали о том, как выглядят человеческие эмбрионы, но к 1950-м годам эмбрионы стали символами жизни, представляя нашу нерожденную саму себя. Морган исследует, как эти образцы были преобразованы в социальные артефакты, отличные от беременных женщин, и как плод препятствовал медицинской карьере Гертруды Стайн. Благодаря этому увлекательному повествованию Морган проливает свет на происхождение современных историй происхождения и поднимает вопросы о том, как мы определяем значение эмбрионов. Книга начинается с отдела анатомии Джона Хопкинса, где впервые был инициирован проект по сбору эмбрионов, и рассказывает о своем путешествии по балтиморским домам подкидышей и вплоть до Китая.
s icônes de la vie : L'histoire culturelle des embryons humains Dans ce livre fascinant et réfléchissant, Lynn M. Morgan explore l'histoire d'un projet du Carnegie Institute de Washington visant à collecter des milliers d'embryons pour la recherche scientifique, offrant une vision unique de l'évolution de la technologie et de son impact sur notre compréhension du développement humain. livre raconte comment, jusqu'au début du XXe siècle, la plupart des gens ne savaient pas à quoi ressemblaient les embryons humains, mais dans les années 1950, les embryons étaient devenus des symboles de la vie, représentant notre être à naître. Morgan étudie comment ces échantillons ont été transformés en artefacts sociaux autres que les femmes enceintes et comment le fœtus a entravé la carrière médicale de Gertrude Stein. Grâce à ce récit fascinant, Morgan met en lumière l'origine des histoires contemporaines d'origine et soulève des questions sur la façon dont nous déterminons le sens des embryons. livre commence par le département d'anatomie de Johns Hopkins, où un projet de collecte d'embryons a été lancé pour la première fois, et raconte son voyage dans les maisons de Baltimore et jusqu'en Chine.

Morgan profundiza en la historia del proyecto del Instituto Carnegie de Washington para reunir miles de embriones para la investigación científica, proporcionando una visión única de la evolución de la tecnología y su impacto en nuestra comprensión del desarrollo humano. libro narra cómo hasta principios del siglo XX la mayoría de la gente no sospechaba de cómo eran los embriones humanos, pero para la década de 1950, los embriones se habían convertido en símbolos de la vida, representando a nuestro ser no nacido. Morgan investiga cómo estas muestras fueron transformadas en artefactos sociales distintos a las mujeres embarazadas y cómo el feto obstaculizó la carrera médica de Gertrude Stine. A través de esta fascinante narración, Morgan arroja luz sobre el origen de las historias de origen modernas y plantea preguntas sobre cómo definimos el significado de los embriones. libro comienza con el Departamento de Anatomía de Johns Hopkins, donde se inició por primera vez un proyecto de recolección de embriones, y cuenta su viaje a través de los hogares baltimorenses de los subalternos y hasta China.
Ikonen des bens: Kulturgeschichte menschlicher Embryonen In diesem faszinierenden und zum Nachdenken anregenden Buch taucht Lynn M. Morgan in die Geschichte des Carnegie Washington Institute Projekts ein, das Tausende von Embryonen für die wissenschaftliche Forschung sammelt und einen einzigartigen Einblick in die Entwicklung der Technologie und ihre Auswirkungen auf unser Verständnis der menschlichen Entwicklung gibt. Das Buch erzählt, wie bis zum Beginn des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts die meisten Menschen nicht wussten, wie menschliche Embryonen aussehen, aber in den 1950er Jahren wurden Embryonen zu Symbolen des bens und repräsentierten unser ungeborenes Selbst. Morgan untersucht, wie diese Proben in andere soziale Artefakte als schwangere Frauen umgewandelt wurden und wie der Fötus die medizinische Karriere von Gertrude Stein behinderte. Mit dieser faszinierenden Erzählung beleuchtet Morgan den Ursprung zeitgenössischer Entstehungsgeschichten und wirft Fragen auf, wie wir die Bedeutung von Embryonen definieren. Das Buch beginnt mit der Johns Hopkins Anatomy Unit, wo das Embryonensammelprojekt zum ersten Mal initiiert wurde, und erzählt von seiner Reise durch die Baltimore Findelhäuser und bis nach China.

Morgan, Washington Carnegie Enstitüsü'nün bilimsel araştırmalar için binlerce embriyo toplama projesinin tarihine girerek, teknolojinin evrimi ve insan gelişimi anlayışımız üzerindeki etkisi hakkında benzersiz bir bakış açısı sunuyor.

Bu büyüleyici anlatı sayesinde Morgan, çağdaş köken hikayelerinin kökenlerine ışık tutuyor ve embriyoların anlamını nasıl tanımladığımız hakkında sorular soruyor. Kitap, embriyo toplama projesinin ilk kez başlatıldığı Johns Hopkins Anatomi Bölümü ile başlıyor ve Baltimore'daki toplama evlerinde ve Çin'e kadar olan yolculuğunu anlatıyor.
أيقونات الحياة: التاريخ الثقافي للأجنة البشرية في هذا الكتاب الرائع والمثير للتفكير، يتعمق لين إم مورغان في تاريخ مشروع معهد كارنيجي بواشنطن لجمع آلاف الأجنة للبحث العلمي، مما يوفر منظورًا فريدًا لتطور التكنولوجيا وتأثيرها على أبحاثنا لفهم التنمية البشرية. يروي الكتاب كيف، حتى أوائل القرن العشرين، لم يكن معظم الناس على دراية بما تبدو عليه الأجنة البشرية، ولكن بحلول الخمسينيات من القرن الماضي، أصبحت الأجنة رموزًا للحياة، تمثل ذواتنا التي لم تولد بعد. يستكشف مورغان كيف تم تحويل هذه العينات إلى قطع أثرية اجتماعية أخرى غير النساء الحوامل، وكيف أعاق الجنين مهنة جيرترود شتاين الطبية. من خلال هذا السرد الرائع، يلقي مورغان الضوء على أصول قصص الأصل المعاصر ويثير تساؤلات حول كيفية تحديد معنى الأجنة. يبدأ الكتاب بقسم تشريح جونز هوبكنز، حيث بدأ مشروع جمع الأجنة لأول مرة، ويؤرخ رحلته عبر منازل بلقيط بالتيمور وعلى طول الطريق إلى الصين.
