You could try asking this on reddit, in particular /r/askhistorians.
One of my favorite subs, and they provide great answers to similar questions on a regular basis.
Their related FAQ answer on historiography books may be helpful too- https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/books/historiography https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/books/historiogr...
Edit- also related, a topic on making a history of science reading list. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/zahv0/meta_history_of_science_reading_list/ https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/zahv0/meta_h...

It's at https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/44s7ak/how_to_learn_the_nutsbolts_of_becoming_an/ https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/44s7ak/how_t... .
- waterlesscloud 11y agoCool. I asked a couple friends, and one has a friend who is a professional science historian, so waiting to hear from her and I'll pass along any response she might have as well.
