This volume represents an important development in the history of expertise as we move from studies promoting the topic’s importance to a bigger picture based on constructivist analyses of expertise in different regions, periods and political systems."- Don Leggett, Department of History, Philosophy and Religious Studies, Nazarbayev University, Astana, Kazakhstan in Annals of Science, 2016
