       sciences -- 3. Kuhn, Nisbett, thought experiments, and the
       Needham question -- 4. Anthropocosmic processes in the 
       anthropocene: revisiting quantum mechanics vs. Chinese 
       cosmology comparison -- 5. Ibn al-Haytham and the 
       experimental method -- 6. Averroes and the development of 
       a late medieval mechanical philosophy -- 7. Barbarous 
       algebra, inferred axioms: Indic rhytms and enchoes in the 
       rise of Western exact science -- 8. The transfer of 
       geographic knowledge of Afro-Eurasia in the "Bright" 
       middle ages: cases of late medieval European maps of the 
       world -- 9. Jamu: the indigenous medical arts of the 
       Indonesian archipelago -- 10. From zero to infinity: the 
       Indian legacy of the bright dark ages -- 11. The Needham 
       quesion and Southeast Asia: comparative and connective 
       perspectives -- 12. Rethinking the Needham question: Why 
       should Islamic civilization give rise to the scientific 
       revolution? -- 13. The greatest mistake: teleology, 
       anthropomorphism, the rise of the science -- 14. Rescuing 
       science from civilization: on Joseph Needham's "Asiatic 
       mode of (knowledge) production." 
520    The European 'dark ages' in the millennium 500 to 1500 CE 
       was a bright age of brilliant scientific achievements in 
       China, India and the Middle East. The contributors to this
       volume address its implications for comparative and 
       connective science studies.--|cProvided by publisher.
