Unveils how values influence scientific objectivity

You will gain a deeper understanding of science's ideals

This book explores the complex relationship between science and values, challenging the notion of value-free objectivity.

It has long been thought that science is our best hope for realizing objective knowledge, but that, to deliver on this promise, it must be value free. Things are not so simple, however, as recent work in science studies makes clear. The contributors to this volume investigate where and how values are involved in science, and examine the implications of this involvement for ideals of objectivity.
