Explore the complex relationship between science, technology, and British colonization in ‘Science and the Raj: A Study of British India, Second Edition’. Deepak Kumar delves into how colonial scientific knowledge was used for political and cultural objectives, and how Indian culture adapted metropolitan scientific ideologies. This insightful book examines the distinct aims and practitioners of colonial versus metropolitan sciences. Discover how, despite colonial power, scientific ideas in India gradually developed their own independent trajectory. Featuring in-depth case studies and broader analytical perspectives, this second edition is updated with new research and a new chapter extending the narrative to 1947. An essential read for understanding the scientific legacy of British India.
