Ignorance Unmasked Essays in the New Science of Agnotology

"'Agnotology,' [the] science of generating ignorance, has become the most important discipline of the day."
-Bruno Latour, Sciences Po, Paris "The essays in Proctor and Schiebinger's spectacular new collection make the concept of agnotology, the creation of ignorance, relevant to the most basic political and scientific battles of the day-from the controversies over the Israeli destruction of Gaza through climate science and food production. This should be read by all social scientists interested in our modern world."
-David Rosner, Columbia University "In a world where up is down and down is up, Ignorance Unmasked brings to bear the power of history to dismantle systematically perpetuated ignorance, with each chapter revealing surprising insights into how our world has been built-accidentally and intentionally-to deceive us."
-Yogi Hendlin, Erasmus University Rotterdam
