The essays pay particular attention to the role of scale, ranging from the local scale of the Surrey countryside to the global spatiality of the prime meridian. The collection opens new avenues for studying the ways that science was a geographically situated set of practices in the nineteenth century"-- 4aSciencexHistoryy19th century. 4aScientific expeditionsxHistoryy19th century. 4aIntellectual lifexHistory.1 aMayhew, Robert J.q(Robert John),d1971-1 aWithers, Charles W.
