  • Oliver Hochadel and Agustí Nieto-Galan, eds., Urban Histories of Science: Making Knowledge in the City, 1820–1940. New York: Routledge, 2019. 252 pp. ISBN: 9780367585389.

    A collection of ten contributions, Urban Histories of Science takes the reader across Europe to Athens, Barcelona, Budapest, Buenos Aires, Dublin, Glasgow, Helsinki, Lisbon, Naples, drawing on the important renewal of the history of science through the perspective of place, and urban spaces in particular. After over a decade of research programmes, the book was also the culmination of editors Oliver Hochadel and Agustí Nieto-Galan’s effort in bringing together a diversity of researchers to question the relations between science and the city.
