Ooh, Simon Schaffer reader coming down the pike. I blogged through a good chunk of his oeuvre back in the day, which was really illuminating. Too bad they didn't include "The Show That Never Ends" (on perpetual motion), which is probably my favorite: doi.org/10.1017/S000... #HPS

Det pratas om performativt läsande, om boken som accessoar i det offentliga. Testar att ta det till nästa nivå, sätter mig på spårvagnen om en stund med en TLS i nävarna, får se om något händer.
