"This collection is an extension of such works and can be viewed as a series of illustrative case studies that will engage with and inform students, early-career researchers, geographers and historians alike about the possibilities of think-ing geographically about the multitudinous ways of making, circulating and displaying global knowledge in the nineteenth century. In its focus on books, pictures, pamphlets and models as objects involved in the circulation of scientific knowledge, this volume also offers a counterpoint to the burgeoning literature on the mobility of scientific instruments".Matthew Goodman, University of Glasgow, Historical Geography "[T]his group of authors give readers a variety of tools with which to think through precisely what ‘global’ can mean in historical analysis. The variety of methodologies expertly employed is refreshing and makes the collection a useful primer for students but also an, instructive resource for experts in any of the fields included. It is a self-aware collection determined to provoke questions and un-dermine assumptions about how knowledge is formed across boundaries, a goal it achieves admirably."Katherine Parker Hakluyt Society, UK, Journal of Historical Geography
