Communicating Physics : The Production, Circulation and Appropriation of Ganot's Textbooks in France and England, 1851-1887 Hardback
by Josep Simon
Part of the Science and Culture in the Nineteenth Century series
Hardback
Description
The textbooks written by Adolphe Ganot played a major role in shaping the way physics was taught in schools.
Simon's Franco-British case study looks at the role of two of Ganot's books.
The study is novel for its international comparison of 19th-century physics and for its emphasis on the communication of science rather than on the science itself.
