ANTH 410R - Anth of Science & Technology

Institution:

Southern Illinois University Carbondale

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

Technologies and scientific knowledge are commonly thought of as being universally applicable and as representations of truths about the operations of the world that are independent of culture. Anthropological studies, however, suggest that the efficacy of scientific knowledge and technologies is specific to the localities in which they are produced. This course introduces students to the primary concerns of the anthropology of science.
