{"product_id":"traces-of-the-future-paul-wenzel-geissler-9781783207251","title":"Traces of the Future: An Archaeology of Medical Science in Africa","description":"This book presents a close look at the vestiges of twentieth-century medical work at five key sites in Africa: Senegal, Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya, and Tanzania. The authors aim to understand the afterlife of scientific institutions and practices and the \"aftertime\" of scientific modernity and its attendant visions of progress and transformation. Straightforward scholarly work is juxtaposed here with altogether more experimental approaches to fieldwork and analysis, including interview fragments; brief, reflective essays; and a rich photographic archive. The result is an unprecedented view of the lingering traces of medical science from Africa's past. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Wenzel Geissler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783207256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783207251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Intellect (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 8.50w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2017","brand":"Paul Wenzel Geissler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48623310504191,"sku":"9781783207251","price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/traces-of-the-future-paul-wenzel-geissler-9781783207251","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
