Why write a book about science, technology, and medicine in Lisbon?
No one questions the value of similar studies of European capital
cities such as Paris or London, but they are not reflective of the
norm. Alongside its unique characteristics, Lisbon more closely
represents the rule and deserves attention as such. This book
offers the first urban history of science, technology and medicine
in Lisbon, 1840-1940. It addresses the hybrid character of a
European port city, scientific capital and imperial metropolis. It
discusses the role of science, technology, and medicine in the
making of Lisbon, framed by the analysis of invisibilities, urban
connections, and techno-scientific imaginaries. The book is
accompanied by a virtual interactive map.
