Visual representation and post-constructivist history of science / Alex Soojung-Kim Pang.
Abstract:
'The literature that has brought visual representations to the core of history of science can be divided into thirds, the first with origins in the sociology of science (or offshoots like science studies and the study of instruments and practices), the second with origins in art history, the third combining questions and tools from both. This essay reviews this literature.'
