The Mangle of Practice
This ambitious book by one of the most original and provocative thinkers in science studies offers a sophisticated new understanding of the nature of scientific, mathematical, and engineering practice and the production of scientific knowledge. Andrew Pickering offers a new approach to the unpredictable nature of change in science, taking into account the extraordinary number of factors—social, technological, conceptual, and natural—that interact to affect the creation of scientific knowledge. In his view, machines, instruments, facts, theories, conceptual and mathematical structures, disciplined practices, and human beings are in constantly shifting relationships with one another—"man...

Peacebuilding in the Balkans
After suffering years of war, Bosnia is now the target of international efforts to reconstruct and democratize a culturally divided society. The global community's strategy has focused on reforming political institutions, influencing the behavior of elite populations, and cultivating nongovernmental organizations. But expensive efforts to promote a stable peace and a multiethnic democracy can be successful only if they resonate among ordinary people.

Hopkins Pickering
There’s not much you can really say about self-expression or what the purpose is. I for one feel that this collection of poems is my best ability at verbalizing my emotions towards the world, its culture and people. And even more so my confusion of what I’m supposed to think about it. The words I choose are much like the color a painter would use to give the viewer or reader in this case the picture I want to emit in their head. Life is a crazy thing, and not matter if its work, frustration with society, or the trials and tribulations of love and friendship, there is always something to learn and pass on to others. I suppose that is the purpose but then again what the hell do I know, I’m just an idiot scribbling words on broken down trees.
