Product Description

-Arnold Davidson, author of The Emergence of Sexuality: Historical Epistemology and the Formation of Concepts

"Historically brilliant, philosophically profound, and beautifully written, Objectivity will be the focus of discussion for decades to come. At one and the same time a history of scientific objectivity and a history of the scientific self, rarely have rigor and imagination been combined so seamlessly and to such deep effect. No one who opens this book can fail to be engaged and provoked by its energy, ideas, and arguments. One emerges from reading it as if from a series of intellectual earthquakes--sound but no longer safe."


-Bruno Latour, author of Politics of Nature: How to Bring the Sciences into Democracy

"This richly illustrated book deeply renews the meaning of accurate reproduction by showing how many ways there have been to be `true to nature.' Art, science, and reproduction techniques are merged to show that `things in themselves' can be presented with their vast and beautiful company. This splendid book will be for many years the ultimate compendium on the joint history of objectivity and visualization."
