For historians working at the intersection between science and art it is essential reading, whilst historians of science, technology and medicine more medicine more generally can draw inspiration from this approach just as artists in the late nineteenth century looked outside the conventional boundaries of their practice to inform new directions of experimentation in the studio.\"\u003c\/p\u003e -- James F. Stark * The British Journal for the History of Science *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Pulse of Modernism is richly informed by scholarship in art history, history of science, and social studies of science.
