From the vernacular engineering of Latino car design to
environmental analysis among rural women to the production of
indigenous herbal cures-groups outside the centers of scientific
power persistently defy the notion that they are merely passive
recipients of technological products and scientific knowledge. This
is the first study of how such "outsiders" reinvent consumer
products-often in ways that embody critique, resistance, or
outright revolt.
