These laboratory recordings?including Robert Yerkes's work with North American primate colonies, Yale University's rat-based simulations of human society, and B. F. Skinner's promotions for pigeon-guided missiles?have long been considered passive records of scientific research. In Schultz-Figueroa's incisive analysis, however, they are revealed to be rich historical, political, and aesthetic texts that played a crucial role in American scientific and cultural history?and remain foundational to contemporary conceptions of species, race, identity, and society. 606 $aAnimals in motion pictures$y20th century 606 $aLaboratory animals 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies$2bisacsh 615 0$aAnimals in motion pictures 615 0$aLaboratory animals. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies. 676 $a791.43/662 700 $aSchultz-Figueroa$b Benjamin, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01350535 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 912 $a996517763503316 996 $aThe Celluloid Specimen$93088759 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01009nam a2200253 i 4500 001 991001747209707536 008 120607m20119999ua ab b 100 0 fre 020 $a9782111286146 035 $ab14063335-39ule_inst 040 $aBiblioteca Interfacoltà$bita 082 04$a962.1 245 00$aAlexandrie médiévale.$n4 /$cédité par Christian Décobert et Jean-Yves Empereur 260 $aLe Caire :$bInstitut français d'archéologie orientale$c2011 300 $a263 p. :$bill., maps ;$c28 cm. 440 0$aEtudes alexandrines ;$v24 651 4$aAlessandria d'Egitto$xStoria$vCongressi 700 1 $aDécobert, Christian 700 1 $aEmpereur, Jean-Yves 907 $a.b14063335$b02-04-14$c07-06-12 912 $a991001747209707536 945 $aLE002 Museo Papirologico BELT Coll.
