“…Finally, they saw nucleus and cytoplasm as one integrated and interacting whole (Allen 1985: 108). The next step in the narrative has it that, when towards the end of the nineteenth century the experimental ideal was imported from physiology to other fields of biology by a younger generation, speculative theory lost its credibility (Allen 1985: 108;Burian 2000Burian : 1129; see also Maienschein 1987b). Instead, after the experimental turn, researchers attempted to isolate problems, or to break down complex processes and study their parts separately.…”

“…Instead, after the experimental turn, researchers attempted to isolate problems, or to break down complex processes and study their parts separately. This is not only a matter of changing epistemic virtues that value controlled experiments over speculative theory, but there is also a motivation or attitude that several authors describe as pragmatic style (Allen 1985: 116;Maienschein 1987a: 88;Burian 2000Burian : 1130; see again Harwood 1993 for an account on different national styles in this respect). Following a research program that consistently generates results has advantages over working on potentially more intriguing, but hard and intractable problems.…”
