Real Science - What it means


an excellent insight into the social and ëpoliticalí structure of the scientific world. Real Science makes interesting reading because it shows that scientific knowledge, rather than providing the idealized, clear and concise description of the world around us, is all too much an evolving product of the human mind.- Peter L. Hordijk and Eloise C. Anthony, Nature Cell Biology

Any scientist interested in establishing a more constructive dialogue with the science and technology studies community would be well-advised to read these works.- Physics Today

for anyone wanting a detailed, realistic, well-rounded view of science, Zimanís Real Science is your book. -  David L. Hull, Nature

a well-organised, carefully argued and very readable work.í Uwe Schimank,
Research Policy

Ziman presents such an impeccably-assembled analysis of what exactly science was, is, and is becoming, that reading it brings about that satisfying sense of a mental jigsaw falling into place. - Vanessa Spedding, Science and Public Affairs

'I would strongly recommend this book - . Scientists for Global Responsibility
