Description “This paper analyses how two very different scientific cultures, one in Britain and one in Bavaria, attempted to achieve the same goal: the production of achromatic lenses. These two cultures had very different views of skilled labour and of what constituted necessary and sufficient knowledge for optical lens production.”
