Locality in the History of Science: Colonial Science, Technoscience, and Indigenous Knowledge
Centre looks at periphery: Alexander von Humboldt's account of Mexican Science and Technology
Humboldt as Scientist and Observer The sixteenth century Spanish conquest of great reaches of the Americas brought New Spain and its peoples vividly into European consciousness yielding spectacular images and abiding myths.
