Thanks for an interesting introduction to these ideas—quite different from how I might have chosen to present them, but all the more interesting for that.
Pickering and others’ sociology of knowledge point to an important distinction between “pure reason” and “rationality”. The distinction is under-appreciated and, it seems to me, one explanation for the “Spock” caricature of rationality.
