Recensioner i media
Anton Pannekoek, produced as an open-access publication, succeeds in alerting a wider audience to this fascinating thinker. It also provides a valuable model for how to recover the interconnections between an actor’s political convictions, philosophical and historical theories, and his or her scientific practices."- Margaret E. Schotte, Canadian Journal of Netherlandic Studies, 41.1 (2021) "Er zijn tientallen beschouwingen over de marxistische astronoom geschreven, maar die bezien hem veelal vanuit één oogpunt: als astronoom óf marxist. Dit boek brengt hier op succesvolle wijze verandering in. Auteurs met verschillende achtergronden beschrijven het werk van Pannekoek in de context van politiek, wetenschap en kunst. [...] In deze bundel kan de lezer gemakkelijk tussen hoofdstukken wisselen en bepaalde delen opzoeken of juist overslaan, al naar gelang de interesse. Het is juist dit brede spectrum dat van Anton Pannekoek: Ways of Viewing Science and Society een geslaagde, toegankelijke bundel maakt."- Stefan Gaillard, Universiteit Utrecht, Wonderkamer. Magazine voor wetenschapsgeschiedenis, 2 (2020)
