Science, Technology and Medicine in Colonial India
David Arnold
Arnold on how science arrived in India as an instrument of rule, and what Indians did with it anyway.
Why you should read this
Arnold's volume in the New Cambridge History of India series surveys how science, medicine and engineering functioned as instruments of British rule as much as neutral knowledge production. Academic in tone and pitched at researchers and graduate students rather than general readers.
