Rezensionen

"Evidence Contestation is thus a really important edition, that concerns biological, medical, physical, and ecological sciences, and shows in various detailed studies, how dissent among scientists and the public could importantly and fruitfully contribute to our understanding of evidence-making and shaping. The editors did a great job in selecting studies and fields for the volume."
