Exploring the intersections of science and technology studies (STS) with science and engineering, this book examines three distinct approaches: observation, intervention, and collaboration. It delves into the various "rooms" where scientific and technological processes occur, highlighting how these orientations shape understanding and engagement in the field. Through these lenses, the text offers insights into the dynamics of knowledge production and the roles that different stakeholders play in shaping scientific practices.

Arthur Conan Doyle, best known for the Sherlock Holmes stories, was of Irish descent, describing himself as an Anglo-Celt. Actively involved with a resolution of the Irish Question, Doyle explores in his fiction the inherent obstacles to peace. His creation, Professor Moriarty, embodies the Fenian threat at the very heart of the British Empire.
