More about the book
Exploring the often-overlooked role of listening in scientific practice, this book delves into how scientists, engineers, and physicians utilize auditory skills alongside visual methods. Through historical and ethnographic evidence from various settings, it examines the purposes and techniques of listening in knowledge creation from the 1920s to the present. Rather than advocating for hearing over seeing, it investigates the conditions under which auditory perception has contributed to scientific understanding, highlighting the complexities of sensory engagement in the sciences.
