Eismitte in the Scientific Imagination: Knowledge and Politics at the Center of Greenland (Palgrave Studies in the History of Science and Technology)
Since the 18th century, Greenland's geometric center, Eismitte, has been one of the most forbidding but scientifically rich locations in the Arctic. Tracing its history from European contact through the Cold War, this study shows how Eismitte was the setting for scientific knowledge production as well as diplomatic maneuvering.
