Scholarly study of 'institutes of science' in Brazil, the foremost of which is the Oswald Cruz Institute; concentrating more on how the institutes developed (or failed in the case of São Paulo's Bacterialogical Institute) socially & politically, than on their work, which included eradication campaigns against yellow fever & bubonic plague.
