Dear all
Here is the programme for the next year for Keele University's Centre for
Social Theory and Technology. There's plenty here for geographers
interested in Science, Technology, Society studies, the sociology of
knowledge and the actor-network theory (monster).
If you're interested and want to hear more, either contact myself (address
at bottom of form), John Law, or go and have a look at our Web sites:
