'''The Concept of "Tacit Knowledge"''': Analyzing "The Magic Touch." Harry Collins discovered that when a lab "Writes down" an experiment, "Other labs" often "Fail" to repeat it. Why? Because the original scientists have "Hidden Skills" (Tacit Knowledge) they "Can't explain" in words. Science is a "Craft" that you must "Learn by doing," like "Cooking" or "Carpentry."
