Autorenporträt
José G. Perillán received a joint doctorate in Physics and History from the University of Rochester in 2011. Currently, he is Assistant Professor at Vassar College (Poughkeepsie, NY), holding a joint appointment in the Physics and Astronomy Department and the Multidisciplinary Program on Science, Technology, and Society. The present book on Myth-History emerges from the author's experience teaching undergraduate courses in physics, history of science, and science, technology, & society. In preparing his varied courses, Perillán moves fluidly among frameworks and modalities. He has harnessed the adaptability and empathy necessary for this relentless pivoting to carve out a common ground from which to reflexively engage the scientific past.
