From French wikipedia
John Farley et Gerald L. Geison, « Le débat entre Pasteur et Pouchet: science, politique et génération spontanée au XIXe siècle en France », in Michel Callon et Bruno Latour, La science telle qu'elle se fait. Anthologie de la sociologie des sciences de langue anglaise, Éditions de La Découverte, 1991.

Bruno Latour
Bruno Latour was a French sociologist who had studied philosophical theology and then anthropology. In 1979 co-authored Laboratory Life: the Social Construction of Scientific Facts with Steve Woolgar, which was taken up by the then-nascent discipline and science studies. In Laboratory Life Latour and Woolgar analyzed their anthropoligical study of scientific research in the Salk Institute.[Star reference] In contrast, The Pasteurization of France would rely instead on archival research.

The Pasteurization of France was Latour's first single-author monograph. Preceding this book, he published an article in 1983 titled Donnez-moi un laboratoire et je soulèverai le monde ("Give me a laboratory and I will raise the world"), which covers some of the ideas expanded on in this book.

Sociology of Scientific Knowledge
Emerging in the 1970's, "sociology of scientific knowledge" (SSK) (also known as the "Strong Program") was a discipline which broke from earlier sociologies of science in eliminating the separation between science and culture, treating scientific practices as another form of culture. Key to SSK was the principle of symmetry: that explanations of scientific knowledge formation should not have to rely on whether or not that knowledge is true. [Handbook of STS, 17th ed. p.33. ISBN 9780262345996]. While "Laboratory studies" such as the one carried out in Laboratory Life were will within the purview of SSK.[Handbook of STS, 17th ed. 89-90]
