A Culture of Curiosity. Science in the Eighteenth-Century Home, Hardback/Leonie Hannan

This book reveals the eighteenth-century home as a site of emergence for science. By rejecting the limiting associations of 'domestic life', this book re-imagines a culture of enquiry populated by apprentices and housewives as much as Fellows of the Royal Society. -- .
