Science in History is a major series of ambitious books on the history of the sciences from the seventeenth century through the mid-twentieth century, highlighting work that interprets the sciences from perspectives drawn from across the discipline of history. The focus on the major epoch of global economic, industrial and social transformations is intended to encourage the use of sophisticated historical approaches to make sense of the ways in which the sciences have developed and changed.
