Abstract
- The book "Art, Science, and the Politics of Knowledge" by Hannah Star Rogers explores the intersection of art, science, and technology studies (ASTS). The author examines specific episodes in the history of science where science has generated aesthetic objects and instances where artists have attempted to insert themselves into scientific endeavors. However, the reviewer criticizes the book for its narrow focus and lack of historical depth, suggesting that it offers a frivolous perspective on the distinction between art and science. The reviewer finds the book's use of lofty language and references to be wearisome and lacking in substance. [Extracted from the article]
