Autorenporträt

Esha Shah is an environmental engineer by training and a social anthropologist, historian, and philosopher of science and technology by professional choice. She is Assistant Professor with the Department of Environmental Sciences at Wageningen University, the Netherlands.

Her research interests so far have broadly concerned the history and anthropology of technology-led development in India on the divide of modernity and democracy. With this book, her research interests have expanded to philosophy of subjectivity and its relation to modes of rationality, including objectivity in science.
