Philosophers, historians, and sociologists of science have grown interested in the daily practices of scientists. Studies have drawn linkages between scientific innovations and more ordinary procedures, craft skills, and sources of sponsorship. This book disputes the idea that science is the application of a unified method or the outgrowth of a progressive history of ideas.
