The Establishment of Science in America: 150 Years of the American Association for the Advancement of Science

Editorial Reviews
Charles Rosenberg, professor of the history of science, University of Pennsylvania
"An illuminating examination of an indispensable institution."

Daniel J. Kevles, professor, division of humanities and social sciences at the California Institute of Technology
"For a century and a half, the American Association for the Advancement of Science has pursued the obligation of its title, serving both scientists and the public energetically, imaginatively, and effectively. Now Kohlstedt, Sokal, and Lewenstein have provided an engaging and informative overview of the AAAS's development and activities. Their book, grounded in solid scholarship, is authoritative and illuminating, a welcome sesquicentennial history."
