{"product_id":"science-images-and-popular-images-of-the-sciences-9780415512404","title":"Science Images and Popular Images of the Sciences","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat is a popular image of science and where does it come from? Little is known about the formation of science images and their transformation into popular images of science. In this anthology, contributions from two areas of expertise: image theory and history and the sociology of the sciences, explore techniques of constructing science images and transforming them into highly ambivalent images that represent the sciences. The essays, most of them with illustrations, present evidence that popular images of the sciences are based upon abstract theories rather than facts, and, equally, images of scientists are stimulated by imagination rather than historical knowledge. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Weingart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415512404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeter Weingart is Professor of Sociology at the University of Bielefeld, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBernd Huppauf is a Professor at New York University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44232157003891,"sku":"9.78042E+12","price":92.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_351bb6e9-f9f0-4623-9189-06c5950a5f36.jpg?v=1768656837","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/science-images-and-popular-images-of-the-sciences-9780415512404","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
