Donna Mehos here examines the exclusive nature of Artis and how the Amsterdam middle class utilized it to cultivate a culture of science that would reflect well on the nation and its capital. This volume offers a fascinating study of the role of science in the development of Dutch national and class identities during a period of national and colonial expansion. 606 $aSCIENCE / General$2bisacsh 607 $aNetherlands$xSocial life and customs$y19th century 615 7$aSCIENCE / General. 676 $a590.739492 700 $aMehos$b Donna C.$0972581 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910146260603321 996 $aScience and culture for members only$92212133 997 $aUNINA
