About this book series
This
book series seeks to publish ground-breaking research exploring the productive
intersection of science and the cultural imagination. Science is at the centre of
daily experience in twenty-first century life and this has defined moments of
intense technological change, such as the Space Race of the 1950s and our very
own era of synthetic biology. Conceived in dialogue with the field of Science
and Technology Studies (STS), this series will carve out a larger place for the
contribution of humanities to these fields. The practice of science is shaped
by the cultural context in which it occurs and cultural differences are now key
to understanding the ways that scientific practice is enmeshed in global issues
of equity and social justice. We seek proposals dealing with any aspect of
science in popular culture in any genre. We understand popular culture as both
a textual and material practice, and thus welcome manuscripts dealing with
representations of science in popular culture and those addressing the role of the cultural imagination in material encounters with science. How science is imagined and what meanings are attached to these imaginaries will be the major focus of this series. We encourage proposals from a wide range of historical and cultural perspectives.
