This collection of case studies, focusing on British scientific
culture during the first industrial revolution, explores the social
basis of science in the period and asks why such an extraordinarily
rich variety of cultural-scientific experience should have
flourished at the time. The book analyses science and scientific
culture in their local contexts, both metropolitan and provincial,
examining where possibel the relations between the two, and
emphasizing the range of scientific associations in London, to
individual savants in the provinces. This book was first published
in 1983.
