Editorial Reviews
Review
After the Science Wars... presents a range of views... minus technical jargon. Contributers... write as if they were not preaching to the converted but to persons willing to hear and engage with the issues in contention... Stolzenberg's essay... shows how anger and passion have corrupted otherwise serious debates, and it demonstrates that there is far less separating the romanticist and rationalists than scientists may have thought... After the Science Wars offers balanced, thoughtful, and illuminating insights into this cultural debate.
-Tom Bowden, Tech Directions
