Review
Gone are the days of photocopying my own handmade course reader for my history of science classes! A History of Science in Society: A Reader is a veritable treasure trove of documents and an indispensable resource for students and teachers of the history of science. Ede and Cormack bring together primary sources spanning from antiquity to the twentieth century in one essential reader. Many of these texts were previously difficult to find or scattered among numerous collections. The scope and diversity of this volume will greatly enrich history of science courses by allowing students to engage easily and comparatively with texts as they never have been able before.
