Surgeons, Fakirs, Merchants and Craftsmen: Making L'Empereur's Jardin in Early Modern South Asia -- Circulation and the Emergence of ModernMapping: Great Britain and Early Colonial India, 1764-1820 -- Refashioning Civilities, Engineering Trust: William Jones, Indian Intermediaries, and the Production of Reliable Legal Knowledge in Late Eighteenth-Century Bengal -- British Orientalism in theEarly Nineteenth Century, orGlobalism versus Universalism -- Defusing Diffusionism: the Institutionalization of Modern Science Education in Early Nineteeth-Century Bengal -- When Human Travellers become Instruments: the Indo-British Exploration of Central Asia in the Nineteenth Century.

Drawing on recent scholarship in the history and sociology of science, as well as in imperialand colonial history, Relocating Modern Science challenges both the belief that modern science was created uniquely in the West and the assumption that it was subsequently diffused, or imposed, elsewhere. Through six chronologically ordered case studies of knowledge construction in botany, cartography, terrestrial surveying, linguistics, scientific education, and colonial administration at key moments in their history, this book demonstrates the crucial importance ofintercultural encounter -- here between South Asians and Europeans -- for the emergence of these sciences. It also revisits questions at the heart of research in the social studies of science -- interpersonal trust, replicability, calibration, translation, and the relationship between instruments and embodied skills -- showingthe complex nature of their resolution in multicultural, and colonial, contexts. By following practitioners, skills, instruments, and ideas as they moved between continents and communities, this bookstresses the crucial role of circulation in the construction and reconfiguration of scientific notionsand practices. In addition to engaging with questions central to imperial, colonial, and South Asianhistory, Relocating Modern Science presents a heuristic model for specialists of other contact zones, periods, and fields of knowledge, as also for transnational and global studies.
