"Extremely timely, important, and well-defined, this book is precisely on target in focusing on heterogeneous studies that treat knowledge as local. The types of science and technology discussed are diverse and well-balanced."--David Stump, coeditor of "The Disunity of Science: Boundaries, Contests, and Power"
