Series: Writing Science. "In this powerful work of conceptual and analytical originality, the author argues for the primacy of the material arrangements of the laboratory in the dynamics of modern molecular biology. In a post-Kuhnian move away from the hegemony of theory, he develops a new epistemology of experimentation in which research is treated as a process for producing epistemic things." (back cover) Inscribed by author to Horace Freeland Judson (1931-2011), an author and .historian of molecular biology.
