This text documents the various ways in which knowledge and
technology transfer happen in practice. In reporting on the travel
of thoughts and things, the authors in the volume undermine
commonly held ideas about technology transfer. Their story shows
how the process of transfer transforms and reshapes the object that
travels. More importantly, they show how the travel of knowledge
and technology results in new socio-technical arrangements, as well
as in new socio-technical objects. These stories also relate how
the authors themselves take part in achieving such processes of
transfer and transformation. As anthropologists, consultants, and
science studies researchers they do not stand outside the transfers
that they describe. The volume is, therefore, a commentary not only
on the practice of knowledge and technology transfer, but also on
the practice of observation and intervention.
