History and Historiography of Science

Things That Do Stuff/New Blog Links

Check out the commentary over at the Copenhagen Medical Museion blog that is critical of the recent “Things That Talk/Think/Act/etc…” trend in history of sci/tech/med writing. There are two posts, linked-to directly here and here. We are also now linking to their blog at the left, as well as the new University of Minnesota History of Science, Technology, and Medicine blog. Anything associated with my home state excites me, so this is great–hopefully they’ll come up with some good stuff for the broader community, but pictures of broomball outings are always cool, too. Lamentably we never did anything like that at Harvard.
