Brief description: David N. Livingstone is professor of geography and intellectual history at Queen's University, Belfast.
Review Quotes: "Scientific knowledge and scientific work are inherently geographical. Its very claims to universality betray science's inherently spatial nature. Surveying the places where science happens, the regional and territorial impress upon its constitution and reception, and the channels through which scientific materials and ideas travel, David Livingstone provides a coherent and convincing demonstration of science's geographies, elegantly enriching our understanding of both endeavours."--Denis Cosgrove, University of California, Los Angeles
