Reviews / Votes
Densely argued, erudite and rich in examples from both art and science...Scientific Representation is both provocative and subtle, and as well as the science studies aficionado. It takes us beyond the issue of representation in science to offer one of the most well throught-out representations of science currently available. * Steven French Times Higher Education Supplement *More details
