'... this book provide[s] a clear and illuminating brief account of this very recent tradition of the 'sociology of scientific knowledge'.' John Henry, Nature
This book reviews recent writing on the history of science and shows how it has been dramatically reshaped by a new understanding of science itself. In the last few years, scientific knowledge has come to be seen as a product of human culture. This new approach has challenged the tradition of the history of science as a story of steady and autonomous progress.
