This book combines personal memoir with an account of key moments in the evolution of social studies of science and technology in Latin America, in which the author Hebe Vessuri was a pioneer. Sometimes clearly autobiographical, other times testimonial, the text traverses countries, contexts and institutions that are part of the history of Latin American societies and the period she lived through, from World War II to the present day.
