Science in Action: How to Follow Scientists and Engineers Through Society by Bruno Latour It is one of the core books of Science and Technology Studies. Anthropologist Bruno Latour argues that machines and scientific facts become black-boxed over time. As they stabilize, they are taken for granted, and the complex processes, negotiations, and controversies that produced them become invisible. He suggests that instead of looking at intrinsic qualities once a fact is black-boxed, we should study science in the making, while the black box is still open and controversies are not yet settled. He proposes rules of method and principles to research science in the making, which later evolve and become the basis of Actor Network Theory. #vezirereads
