The introduction distinguishes four related strands in the history of experimental control: the development of practices to stabilize experimental conditions; the career of the comparative design; the unfolding of methodological discussions about control practices and designs; and the history of the term ?control?. Each chapter brings these distinctions to bear on specific historical episodes. The focus is on experiments with complex, elusive phenomena such as perception and learning, irregular movements, and unobservable elements. Such experiments bring control issues to the fore because they are difficult to design and stabilize and often controversial. Together, the chapters show that the local context shapes what exactly is controlled, how control can be accomplished, and how controls are justified. They also show that control strategies and methodological ideas often remain stable for a long time and change only gradually. This book, as well as the volume on analysis and synthesis in experimentation by the same editors, contains contributions by an array of experts from multiple disciplines, making it suitable for historians and philosophers of science and students alike. 410 0$aArchimedes, New Studies in the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology,$x2215-0064 ;$v71 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aAnalytical chemistry 606 $aMathematics 606 $aHistory 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aHistory of Philosophy 606 $aAnalytical Chemistry 606 $aHistory of Mathematical Sciences 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory. 615 0$aAnalytical chemistry. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aAnalytical Chemistry. 615 24$aHistory of Mathematical Sciences. 676 $a509 700 $aSchickore$b Jutta$01736839 701 $aNewman$b William R$0214780 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910841872103321 996 $aElusive Phenomena, Unwieldy Things$94157491 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00954nam2 22002773i 450 001 UFE0667128 005 20251003044426.0 100 $a20180605d1923 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aita 102 $ait 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 183 1$6z01$anc$2RDAcarrier 200 1 $aDella proprietà. 2$fBiagio Brugi 205 $a2. ed. intieramente rifatta e corredata di indice alfabetico 210 $aNapoli$cE.
