Abstract

Altogether, I Discovery, Innovation, and the Victorian Admiralty i reminds us that the encouragement and reception of technology - and of science - is rarely just about enthusiasm or reluctance. REFERENCES 1 Citation: Hardy, Penelope K. "Review of Discovery, Innovation, and the Victorian Admiralty: Paper Navigators by Erika Behrisch." In I Discovery, Innovation, and the Victorian Admiralty i , Erika Behrisch argues that both can be true: mid-nineteenth-century Admiralty administrators were interested in - even enthusiastic about - science and technology but also bound by a responsibility to protect the public purse and a cultural reluctance to communicate openly about their decision-making.
