Beskrivning
In this book, originally published by Ballinger in 1976, Michael Mahoney documents the idiosyncracies and foibles of the scientific process as a field of endeavor. A new introduction updates his discussion in light of subsequent developments, including such aspects of academia as politics and tenure, publication and power relations, science studies and constructivist inquiry, and what have come to be called the "science wars."

Recensioner i media

"Michael Mahoney has practiced science from within the major paradigms and has also stood outside and critiqued each in turn, not as caricatures but as valiant (if fallible) attempts to make sense of our experience." N. McK. Agnew, York University "A radical, thought-provoking exploration of the experience of being a scientist. After twenty-five years, it maintains its lively topicality and suggests new questions relevant to scientific methodologies." Giampiero Arciero, University of Siena "This important book challenges many myths of science and its practitioners. Mahoney's absorbing new introduction offers a clear picture of our social responsibility in the manufacture and use of knowledge. Erudite and informative, yet also witty and entertaining." Sophie Freud, Simmons College "One of the great psychologies of science. Mahoney deconstructs the many myths that are cracking the very foundations of scientific knowledge." Andre Marquis, Northeastern State University
