Description
|
|
|
|
This exhibit catalog invites readers to consider the era when photography, X-rays, and movies were new, when forays into the world beneath the skin or the realm beyond our everyday vision captivated scientists and the public alike. Accounts of scientific experimentation blend with stories of showmanship to relate how developments in 19th-century technology could enlighten as well as frighten and amaze. The 207 images here demonstrate early experiments with microscopes, telescopes, electricity and magnetism, motion studies, X-rays and radiation, and spirit photography, tracing the rise of popular science.
