Society for the History of Technology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Society for the History of Technology, or SHOT, is the primary professional society for historians of technology. Founded in 1958, its flagship publication is the journal Technology and Culture. The history of technology is traditionally linked to both economic history and history of science, and SHOT is considered an interdisciplinary group. In 2005, after a lengthy hiatus, SHOT resumed the tradition of holding its annual meeting in conjunction with the History of Science Society (HSS); this had been done once every several years as HSS rotates it's meetings with other organizations such as the Society for Social Studies of Science (4S) and the Philosophy of Science Association (PSA).
The society awards the Dexter Prize.
