This phenomenon is now attracting increasing attention in different historical specialties. Being Modern builds on this recent scholarly interest to explore engagement with science across culture from the end of the nineteenth century to approximately 1940. Addressing the breadth of cultural forms in Britain and the western world from the architecture of Le Corbusier to working class British science fiction, Being Modern paints a rich picture. Seventeen distinguished contributors from a range of fields including the cultural study of science and technology, art and architecture, English culture and literature examine the issues involved. The book will be a valuable resource for students, and a spur to scholars to further examination of culture as an interconnected web of which science is a critical part, and to supersede such tired formulations as 'Science and culture'. --$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01108360 606 $aScience in popular culture$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01108734 606 $aIntellectual life$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00975769 606 $aScience in popular culture$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 607 $aGreat Britain$xIntellectual life$y20th century 608 $aHistory. 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aHistory of Science 610 $aModern 610 $aCulture 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aScience in popular culture. 615 0$aIntellectual life. 615 0$aScience in popular culture$xHistory 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects$xHistory 676 $a941.082 700 $aBud $b Robert$4edt 702 $aShiach$b Morag 702 $aJames$b Frank A.
