This volume explores how the scientific method enters and determines the dominant methodologies of various modern academic disciplines. It highlights the ways in which practitioners from different disciplinary backgrounds -- the humanities, the natural sciences, and the social sciences -- engage with the scientific method in their own disciplines.

"Mapping Scientific Method is a superb addition to studies of the scientific method. Challenging the idea of any singular scientific method, the authors of this volume narrate the richness of disciplinary methods, and the innovations and imagination of the sciences. Taking on the "method ladenness" of knowledge, Chadha and Thomas have assembled a path breaking volume that adds to our understanding of the Eurocentrism of science, and more importantly offering us alternate genealogies and methods from the histories and sociologies of the sciences of South Asia. Eschewing claims of an idealized and false unity of science, the authors call for a multiplicity and diversity of method. They present on-the-ground complexities of how science is done in India in a variety of the natural and social sciences, and the humanities. Deeply committed to a project of reclaiming "science" as a critically important site for dealing with the complexities of the world, the volume reckons with science's deep and wide global roots. With our growing interest in decolonization, this anthology will prove to be an indispensable collection of how we might diversify not only our methods and methodologies, but also our history, sociology and anthropology of the sciences."

"How has the career of the 'scientific method' shaped our ways of knowing the world? This innovative and important collections suggests that decolonizing knowledge requires a head-on engagement with this question. And, that it is something more than cutting and pasting 'other' people's histories into dominant historical and cultural narratives. It necessitates nuanced and localised immersion in the history of methods across disciplines at sites beyond the Euro-American academia. This, the volume argues, carries the potential for renewing the possibilities of critical thinking itself. As contributors to the volume lucidly demonstrate, such reflections also allow for an understanding of the post-colonial condition as well as alternatives to the hegemonies of both western scientific method and its caricatures in the non-western world."
