Linus Pauling, Roger Hayward, and the Value of Visualizations. Linus Pauling's work was intrinsically linked to visualizations. While his use of three- and two-dimensional inscriptions has been the focus of much scholarly research, the production of visualizations remains a rather poorly studied subject. This article focuses on the cooperation between Pauling and Roger Hayward, an architect by profession who came to scientific illustration in the late 1920s. By concentrating on the papers of Pauling and Hayward I describe the workflow between scientist and illustrator. Although Hayward's visualizations were epistemically indispensable and economically profitable, they were never fully acknowledged as such. This was due to the ongoing conflicts caused by the economic strategies pursued by Pauling and his publisher, Hayward's personal style, and science's general disregard for images as epistemic instruments. I suggest that these contentious relationships between scientist, illustrator, and publisher are paradigmatic for the history of scientific visualization.
莱纳斯·鲍林、罗杰·海沃德与可视化的价值。莱纳斯·鲍林的工作与可视化有着内在联系。虽然他对三维和二维绘图的运用一直是众多学术研究的焦点,但可视化的制作仍是一个研究相当不足的课题。本文聚焦于鲍林与罗杰·海沃德的合作,海沃德是一名建筑师,于20世纪20年代末投身科学插图绘制工作。通过研读鲍林和海沃德的论文,我描述了科学家与插图画家之间的工作流程。尽管海沃德的可视化作品在认知上不可或缺且在经济上有利可图,但它们从未得到充分认可。这是由于鲍林及其出版商所采用的经济策略引发的持续冲突、海沃德的个人风格,以及科学界普遍对图像作为认知工具的忽视。我认为科学家、插图画家和出版商之间的这些矛盾关系是科学可视化历史的典型代表。
