From the publisher

How did science come to have such a central place in Western culture? How did cognitive values--and subsequently moral, political, and social ones--come to be modelled around scientific values? In Civilization and the Culture of Science , Stephen Gaukroger explores how these values were shaped and how they began, in turn, to shape those of society.
