Excerpt:
Welcome to our subject guide on STS. This guide is intended for use by students, staff and faculty at the University of Alberta with an interest in STS, an emerging field of academic study, interdisciplinary in nature, that examines science and technology as social and cultural phenomena. The following table of contents is partly based on that of the ISIS Current Bibliography of the History of Science and Its Cultural Influences, 1991, a print source available in most academic libraries. (Please note that this is not a comprehensive subject guide.)
