Photography and science have a longstanding and intertwined relationship, contributing to our understanding of the world. Scientists employ photography as a valuable tool for gathering information, exploring, and learning, while also playing a crucial role in promoting scientific advancements and fostering communication between the scientific community and the broader public.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor instance, images transmitted from the Hubble Space Telescope are instrumental in our understanding of outer space, while X-rays play a vital role in diagnosing medical conditions within our bodies. Photographs enable us to perceive what lies beyond the limitations of human perception, unveiling the hidden intricacies of the natural world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScience, rather than being a rigid accumulation of facts, is a dynamic and iterative process of discovery and inquiry. It shares similarities with art, as artists have also engaged with scientific principles to envision the world differently and offer us fresh experiences and perspectives. This volume showcases both perspectives, exploring how science becomes perceptible through the lens of photography. It features over three hundred captivating images and sixty concise texts, engaging readers in a timely exploration of the extent to which our knowledge is shaped and transformed through our interactions with photographic imagery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough its comprehensive coverage, Seeing Science offers a valuable insight into the multifaceted relationship between science and photography, highlighting their mutual influence and the transformative power of visual representation.
