Technical Knowledge in American Culture Science, Technology, and Medicine Since the Early 1800s

Technical Knowledge in American Culture addresses the relationships between what modern-day experts say to each other and to their constituencies and whether what they say and do relates to the larger culture, society, and era. These essays challenge the social impact model by looking at science, technology, and medicine not as social activities but as intellectual activities.Cravens, Hamilton is the author of 'Technical Knowledge in American Culture Science, Technology, and Medicine Since the Early 1800s', published 1996 under ISBN 9780817307936 and ISBN 0817307931.
