Description
A rich variety of stories about encounters: between Danish kings and Greenlanders, Swedish naturalists and the Saami, ethnographers and Inuit. This absorbing collection makes a welcome contribution not only to the understanding of the representation and practice of science in the Nordic regions, but also to the history of science, culture and politics more generally.
