' an ambitious and laudable attempt to make the best thinking about the history of modern science accessible to scientists...' - Graham Farmelo, The Science Museum, London
'The book's widespread uptake shows that it has already fulfilled its main purpose of 'accompanying' scholars and young entrants to the field in their formation and specialization. Thanks to the new paperback version, it will very likely continue to do so in the years to come' - Simon Turchetti, University of Manchester, BJHS
