The Scientific Life: A Moral History of a Late Modern Vocation
Steven Shapin
Who are scientists? What kind of people are they? What capacities and virtues are thought to stand behind their considerable authority? This book tells the author's story about who scientists are, who we think they are, and why our sensibilities about such things matter.
