Quotes by Barry Barnes (?)

“In all disciplines, there is a trend away from regarding science as the earthly embodiment of some Platonic universal; instead it is being treated more and more as a human activity like any other, or as a sub-culture routinely interacting with other areas of study.”
― Barry Barnes, Scientific knowledge and sociological theory
