Autumn, 1998
THE Museum recently invited the Scientific Instrument Commission of the International Union of the History and Philosophy of Science to hold the XIX International Scientific Instrument Symposium in Oxford in the year 2000. The invitation has been accepted and a booking has been secured in Wadham College for the 4th to the 8th September. Wadham, a key centre of enquiry for natural philosophy in the seventeeth century, is in the middle of Oxford, very close to the Museum.
