Beskrivelse

Demonstrates the reason for Herschel's renown was due to the notion that his voyage was aligned with imperial ambition. It is the purpose of this book to make a case for the scientific, cultural and political singificance of his voyage and observations, as a means of demonstrating the relationship of science to imperial culture.
