Overview: Kepulauan Nusantara adalah surga untuk melakukan eksplorasi ilmiah. Para ilmuwan dari seluruh dunia pernah membuat penemuan penting di sana. Namun, mengapa nama-nama ilmuwan Indonesia itu sendiri hampir tidak pernah muncul dalam catatan sejarah ilmu pengetahuan? Dalam buku ini Andrew Goss menganalisis zaman ke zaman kehidupan profesional para naturalis dan ahli biologi di Indonesia untuk menunjukkan apa yang terjadi pada ilmu pengetahuan ketika negara menjadi satu-satunya patron terhebat.Melalui sokongan dana untuk membayar penelitian, para ilmuwan di Indonesia mengikuti agenda negara yang terutama dipusatkan untuk mengeksploitasi sumber daya alamnya yang paling berharga—terutama tanaman pangan ekspor: kina, gula, kopi, teh, karet, dan nila. Hasilnya adalah satu kelas birokrat botani yang Goss juluki sebagai “floracrats”. Dengan menggunakan arsip-arsip dan sejarah lisan, Goss menunjukkan bagaimana para ilmuwan ini berusaha mewujudkan cita-cita Aufklarung alias Pencerahan dari ilmu pengetahuan yang objektif, universal, dan berguna, bahkan ketika mereka mengkhianati cita-cita tersebut karena gagal membagi pengetahuan sains kepada masyarakat umum.Dalam setiap bab, Goss memerinci fase kekuatan dan karakter ilmuwan di Indonesia yang telah berjuang dengan dilema ini, sejak awal era kolonial, melewati kemerdekaan, hingga negara Indonesia modern. Goss menunjukkan betapa kemerdekaan hanya berpengaruh terbatas bagi komunitas ilmuwan, tidak peduli betapa idealisnya ilmuwan itu tetap berpatron pada negara. Memang benar bahwa ilmu pengetahuan adalah alat negara, tetapi negara telah membatasi proses penyerapan ilmu pengetahuan, dan akhirnya gagal untuk memimpin masyarakat, tak mampu berperan sebagai penghubung antara masyarakat dan negara. Ilmu pengetahuan masih menjadi urusan bagi segelintir kaum elite yang memang memiliki minat dan bakat.
