Description

Product Description This book offers the first comparative account of the changes and stabilities of public perceptions of science within the US, France, China, Japan, and across Europe over the past few decades. The contributors address the influence of cultural factors; the question of science and religion and its influence on particular developments (e.g. stem cell research); and the demarcation of science from non-science as well as issues including the ‘incommensurability’ versus ‘cognitive polyphasia’ and the cognitive (in)tolerance of different systems of knowledge. About the Author Martin W. Bauer is currently Reader in Social Psychology and Research Methodology at the London School of Economics and Political Science, and a Research Fellow at the Science Museum in London. Rajesh K. Shukla is currently head of Division of Sample Survey and General Economics as Senior Fellow (Chief Statistician) at NCAER in Delhi. Nick Allum is lecturer in sociology at the University of Essex.
