Science and Technology in a Multicultural World The Cultural Politics of Facts and Artifacts

"This ambitious and far-reaching book transforms the way we think about the production, distribution, and consumption of the benefits and burdens of science and technology. David Hess uses anthropological perspectives and studies to re-tell the story of multiple and contested histories, social relations, and forms of knowledge embedded in scientific practices. His book synthesizes many valuable resources for those of us who practice, learn, or teach science as part of contemporary life."Hess, David J. is the author of 'Science and Technology in a Multicultural World The Cultural Politics of Facts and Artifacts', published 1995 under ISBN 9780231101974 and ISBN 023110197X.
