I really love Harry Collins as an Author. I find that Collins make the sociology of science very accessible to one who is just taking their first glimpse at the field. He uses good examples and has excellent footnotes.
As it has been some time since I've read this book I feel unable to get into the specifics. I can, however, say that this book in particular helps me a lot to lay a strong foundation for my thesis. Through reading Collins I gained a better understanding of what I was really wanting to write about and for that this book will always be a winner in my heart.
I rate this book an 8 out of 10. It can drag a bit and be a bit cumbersome as can be expected from any academic text. It's a good first work to read if you're interested in the field.
