A major retelling of the history of science from 1450 to the present day that explodes the myth that science began in Europe - instead celebrating how scientists from Africa, America, Asia, and the Pacific were integral to this very human story. It challenges the traditional narrative, celebrating scientists neglected by history and emphasizing the global cultural exchange involved in scientific development.
