It examines how global knowledge exchange, particularly in the 19th and 20th centuries, was shaped by intricate networks of 'entangled knowledges' rather than a simple European blueprint. Using case studies from colonial medicine in India, the author investigates how indigenous practices influenced Western medical traditions and vice versa, highlighting the dynamic and reciprocal nature of these exchanges. The book critically analyzes the epistemic hierarchies established through imperial institutions and the evolution of 'Pidgin knowledge'—a blend of diverse cultural and scientific elements. Intended for scholars of postcolonial studies, history, and the sociology of science, the work emphasizes the need to reconsider the historical interconnections of global knowledge systems and their impact on modern scientific paradigms.Generated by AI.Pidgin-Knowledge Imperialism and scienceGenerated by AIPostcolonialismGenerated by AIImperialism and sciencePostcolonialismFischer-Tiné Harald1801637MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910954067503321Pidgin-Knowledge4346995UNINA
