"This is a widely significant and ambitious volume notwithstanding
its small size and seemingly esoteric subject matter...The book joins a small but
important literature that deals with the space shared
between laboratory scientists with their disciplinary
concerns and the wider public sphere." - Robert Budd, American Historical Review
