Science In The Marketplace
Aileen Fyfe-Bernard Lightman
The 19th century was an age of transformation in science, when scientists were rewarded for their new discoveries with increased social status and authority. This book shows the scientific life of Victorian Britain by placing the sciences in the wider cultural marketplace. It links larger societal changes to the evolution of "popular science."
