Georges Canguilhem on Science - Dictionary of Arguments

Foucault II 11
History of Science/Canguilhem/Foucault: Canguilhem distinguishes between the microscopic and macroscopic levels of the history of science, on which events and their consequences are not distributed in the same way: so that a discovery, the alignment of a method, the work of a scholar, even his failures, never have the same effect and cannot be described in the same way at one level as another; it is not the same story told here and there. >Order/Canguilhem
