The creation of scientific effects : Heinrich Hertz and electric waves /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

This book is an attempt to reconstitute the tacit knowledge--the shared, unwritten assumptions, values, and understandings--that shapes the work of science. Jed Z. Buchwald uses as his focus the social and intellectual world of nineteenth-century German physics. Drawing on the lab notes, published p...
