Osiris: Expertise: Practical Knowledge and the Early Modern State
Osiris（科学史の分野で特集企画に特化した雑誌）の最新号が出されたもようです。特集は「専門的技術：実践的知識と初期近代の国家」となっています。編者Eric H. Ashです。
This newest annual edition of Osiris brings together a variety of scholars to consider a topic of increasing interest in the history of science: expertise. Focusing specifically on the role expertise has played in the growth of the state since early modern times, Expertise reveals how scientific expertise and practical knowledge were crucial to the construction of early modern empires and economies. The state, on the other hand, performed a similar function for scientists, giving them much of the status and resources they needed to further their work.
