Scientocracy

The Tangled Web of Public Science and Public Policy

Herausgeber: Michaels, Patrick J; Kealey, Terence

Beschreibung

Science can be a force for good, and it has enhanced our lives in countless ways, but even a cursory look at the last century shows that what passes for "science" can be detrimental. This book documents only some of the more recent abuses of science that informed members of the public should be aware of.
