Historians of technology love to talk about museums. Whether the conversation is about artifacts or exhibitions, institutional politics or public policy, the museum evokes a remarkable degree of passion and fascination. Conferences about museums involving historians of technology occur with some regularity, often followed by anthologies based on presentations at these conferences. The latest is Museums of Modern Science, a wonderful collection that stems from a 1999 symposium sponsored by the Nobel Museum and the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences' Center for History of Science
