“In 1680, Robert Boyle published the Second Part of his Continuation of New Experiments Physico-mechanical, Touching the Spring and Weight of the Air…. According to Boyle's preface, the experimental work… was mainly done by a remunerated technician… Denis Papin. The air-pump with which the experiments were performed was… of Papin's own design… At least some, and perhaps the greatest part, of the design of the experimental project was also owing to the technician…. It seems also that the technician was partly, if not mainly, responsible for the composition of the experimental narratives.”
