520 1  "In The Science of Empire, Zaheer Baber analyzes the 
       social context of the origins and development of science 
       and technology in India from antiquity through colonialism
       to the modern period. The focus is on the two-way 
       interaction between science and society: how specific 
       social and cultural factors led to the emergence of 
       specific scientific/technological knowledge systems and 
       institutions that transformed the very social conditions 
       that produced them. A key feature is the author's analysis
       of the role of precolonial trading circuits and other 
       institutional factors in transmitting scientific and 
       technological knowledge from India to other civilizational
       complexes. A significant portion represents an analysis of
       the role of modern science and technology in the 
       consolidation of the British empire in India."--Jacket.
