Recenzii
'At last, a comprehensive and eminently readable survey that charts the intricate bond between science and government over the past five hundred years. Gascoigne establishes that the ascent of 'modern' science was entwined with the concurrent rise of the modern state. The consequences of which helped shape both domains – as well as the modern world.' Mordechai Feingold, California Institute of Technology
'Changes in the nature of the state from the seventeenth century to the World War II make the history of the relations between science and the state a complex matter. Gascoigne is to be congratulated on having produced a clear and immensely helpful account of these relations.' Stephen Gaukroger, University of Sydney
'… Gascoigne's study does a valuable service by offering a concise, readable survey of a complex topic. Like any good survey, it sums up while also pointing the way forward, suggesting the need for more comparative work on science and the state across different eras and countries.' Tricia M. Ross, Metascience
'Not only will students and the general reader profit from Gascoigne's thoughtful and readable introductory study on science-state relations; so too will professional historians of science. I strongly recommend it to all.' David Cahan, Isis
