What Is the History of Science?
I don't often see historian and poet in the same bio. How does that happen? My father as a first generation college goer somewhat bumbled into a PhD in physics, and really just suggesting that his three children also become professors. So yeah, I became a cultural historian with a specialty in the history of science,. And then migrated over more to the history ofScience which is a kind of poetry of itself. Rather than a body of knowledge, the history of Science is somewhat about searching for metaphors That can help you to understand why science is so different in different periods of time.
