Morning After the Experiment: Science in Daily Life

Scientific ideas became ordinary through water taps, medicines, timetables, photographs, gaslight, and the quiet authority of measurement. This book follows the routes by which laboratories, workshops, schools, and public offices brought new knowledge into daily routines. It also asks who trusted that knowledge, who could afford its benefits, and who bore its risks. The history of science emerges not as a parade of discoveries, but as a changing set of habits.
