The History of Science Society and the Society for the History of Technology are organizing a Conference to be held Oct. 31 to Nov. 3, 1991 in Madison, Wisconsin on "Critical Problems and Research Frontiers in History of Science and History of Technology." This conference is being held in conjunction with the annual meetings of the two societies. The planning for this conference was supported under DIR-8912577. The conference will bring together leaders of both fields from around the world in order to discuss the issues to be addressed at the meeting. Each society is sponsoring symposia that cut across time periods and geographic boundaries, and provide important comparative insights on the development of science and technology. Similarly, sessions devoted to methodologies should stimulate new kinds of research and shed light on the boundaries of history of science and history of technology from closely related fields. Plenary sessions are intended to address issues of common concern to all historians of science and of technology. The papers are being distributed prior to the meeting. The discussions at the conference will be transcribed and a final volume of the papers and salient points of the discussion will be published.

科学史学会和技术史学会将于1991年10月31日至11月3日在威斯康星州的麦迪逊举办一次会议，主题是“科学史和技术史中的关键问题和研究前沿”。这次会议是与两个学会的年度会议同时举行的。这次会议的规划得到了DIR-8912577的支持。这次会议将汇集来自世界各地的这两个领域的领导人，以讨论将在会议上解决的问题。每个学会都在赞助跨越时间和地理界限的研讨会，提供关于科学和技术发展的重要比较见解。同样，专门讨论方法论的会议应鼓励新类型的研究，并从密切相关的领域阐明科学史和技术史的界限。全体会议的目的是讨论所有科学和技术历史学家共同关心的问题。文件正在会前分发。会议上的讨论将被记录下来，论文的最后一卷和讨论的要点将被出版。
