The British Society for the History of Science

Welcome to the website of the BSHS: the main organisation in the British Isles working to bring together people with an interest in the histories of science, technology and medicine and their changing relationship with society.

As you will know from the last issue of Viewpoint membership rates have increased slightly this year but we are sure that you will still find membership excellent value for money. In addition to regular issues of Viewpoint and the British Journal for the History of Science, and our active conference programme, membership benefits will shortly be expanded to include a dedicated members' area of the BSHS website.

History of Science Songs

If you've ever thought that 'Cholera!' would have been a more entertaining Andrew Lloyd Webber musical than 'Oliver!' or that Flanders and Swann's 'Hippopotamus' could have provided more detailed zoological information, put those thoughts into practice by entering our 2009 Song Competition.
