The Science Wars: Debating Scientific Knowledge and Technology (Contemporary Issues (Buffalo, N.Y.).)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionDoes science provide objective, impartial knowledge about nature and reality, or do social and cultural influences determine its course? Are scientific claims, practices, and theories contrary to religion? From creationists on the right to postmodernists on the left, intellectuals are waging war over the role and future of science in our society. In SCIENCE WARS editor Keith Parsons presents the best arguments that science critics have presented and the spirited rebuttals offered to counter them. In addition to presenting the conflicting viewpoints of advocates on various sides of the debate, this anthology includes essays that go deeper to discuss the underlying issues. Some conservative thinkers charge that many scientists follow a dogmatic naturalistic philosophy rather than truly objective standards. Sociologists of knowledge claim that scientists `construct` scientific facts rather than `discover` them. And some feminists see patriarchal bias in traditional… [detailed...]

The Science and Fiction of Autism

2007 y.
Publisher: Harvard University Press
Description: One of the tragedies of autism is that, as Schreibman writes, `[t]he field… is littered with the debris of dead ends, crushed hopes, ineffective treatments, and false starts.` Drawing from her own extensive clinical experience, psychologist Schreibman, director of the Autism Research Program at UC-San Diego, provides a comprehensive account of this mysterious disorder within the context of the controversies and contentions of the field. Arguing that autism is entirely biological in origin, Schreibman systematically discounts past and present popular causal theories, such as `refrigerator mothers` and the measles/mumps/rubella vaccine. Although expertly guiding readers through a detailed analysis of characteristics, diagnosis and treatment, Schreibman never forgets to illuminate the human side of autism. The disturbing, and often tragic, impact of simplistic and unsubstantiated treatments, like facilitated communication, secretin and holding therapy, serve as evidence that `bad… [detailed...]

The Science of Fear: Why We Fear the Things We Shouldn`t--and Put Ourselves in Greater Danger

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: From terror attacks to the war on terror, real estate bubbles to the price of oil, sexual predators to poisoned food from China, our list of fears is ever-growing. And yet, we are the safest and healthiest humans in history. Irrational fear seems to be taking over, often with tragic results. For example, in the months after 9/11, when people decided to drive instead of fly?believing they were avoiding risk?road deaths rose by more than 1,500. In this fascinating, lucid, and thoroughly entertaining examination of how humans process risk, journalist Dan Gardner had the exclusive cooperation of Paul Slovic, the world renowned risk-science pioneer, as he reveals how our hunter gatherer brains struggle to make sense of a world utterly unlike the one that made them. Filled with illuminating real world examples, interviews with experts, and fast-paced, lean storytelling, The Science of Fear shows why it is truer than ever that the worst thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Description: As featured in the bestselling book The Secret , here is the landmark guide to wealth creation republished with the classic essay `How to Get What You Want.` Wallace D. Wattles spent a lifetime considering the laws of success as he found them in the work of the world`s great philosophers. He then turned his life effort into this simple, slender book - a volume that he vowed could replace libraries of philosophy, spirituality, and self-help for the purpose of attaining one definite goal: a life of prosperity. Wattles describes a definite science of wealth attraction, built on the foundation of one commanding idea: `There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made…A thought, in this substance, produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.` In his seventeen short, straight-to-the-point chapters, Wattles shows how to use this idea, how to overcome barriers to its application, and how work with very direct methods that awaken it… [detailed...]

Description: In his most important book to date, award-winning author Timothy Ferris?`the best popular science writer in the English language today` (Christian Science Monitor)?makes a passionate case for science as the inspiration behind the rise of liberalism and democracy. Ferris argues that just as the scientific revolution rescued billions from poverty, fear, hunger, and disease, the Enlight-enment values it inspired has swelled the number of persons living in free and democratic societies from less than 1 percent of the world population four centuries ago to more than a third today. Ferris deftly investigates the evolution of these scientific and political revolutions, demonstrating that they are inextricably bound. He shows how science was integral to the American Revolution but misinterpreted in the French Revolution, reflects on the history of liberalism, stressing its widely underestimated and mutually beneficial relationship with science, and surveys the forces that have opposed… [detailed...]
