This course will take an interdisciplinary approach (drawing on cultural
history, anthropology, gender studies, and philosophy) to the study of
Chinese science, technology, and medicine in its intellectual, social, and
cultural context. We will critically assess the conclusions on 'culture'
derived from the received historiography on Chinese science, and also
examine emerging trends in current research. Knowledge of Chinese is not
required.
