Science and Whig Manners by Joe Bord
Approaching the intersection of politics and science from the perspective of political history, this book looks at how nineteenth-century British Whigs used the themes of natural science to signal their identities, and how their devotion to a culture of liberality helped to define them. Offers a fresh take on a central theme in Victorian politics.'..Bord's thesis is interesting and important for the historian of science.' - Metascience
