Reseña del libro "Research Corporation, 1912-1952: Dedicated to Progress in Education and Science (en Inglés)"
""Research Corporation, 1912-1952: Dedicated to Progress in Education and Science"" is a comprehensive historical account of the Research Corporation, a philanthropic organization that played a significant role in advancing scientific research and education in the United States during the first half of the 20th century. Written by Joseph Warren Barker, a former president of the Research Corporation, the book traces the organization's origins, its early years as a vehicle for the philanthropic activities of its founder, Frederick Gardner Cottrell, and its subsequent growth and impact on the development of science and education in America. The book explores the Research Corporation's funding of groundbreaking research in fields such as physics, chemistry, and medicine, as well as its support for the training of young scientists and the establishment of research facilities and programs at universities across the country. In addition to its scientific contributions, the Research Corporation also played a key role in the development of the US patent system and the promotion of intellectual property rights. Drawing on extensive archival research and personal recollections, ""Research Corporation, 1912-1952"" provides a detailed and fascinating account of an important institution in the history of American science and education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
