Angebote / Angebote:

In bringing together leading scientists from a variety of disciplines to share their experiences and observations of developing and testing hypotheses, this book offers insights on the dangers of manipulating science for political gain. It describes how politicization--whether by misapplication, overextension, or outright manipulation of the scientific record to advance particular policy agendas--imposes costs: expenditures of money, missed opportunities, and burdens on the economy.
