This volume gathers essays that focus on the worldliness of
science, its inseparable engagement in the major institutional
bases of social life: law, market, church, school, and nation. With
a chronological span reaching from the Renaissance to Big Science,
its topics range from sundials to genetic sequences, from
calculating instruments to devices that simulate human behavior,
from early cartography to techniques for tracing radioactive
fallout on a global scale. The book aims to show readers, with
episodes drawn from the span of their modern history, the sciences
in action throughout human society.
