Peddling science: An essay review of science bought and sold: Essays in the economics of science
Philosophy of Science 70 (4):833-839 (2003)
| Abstract | Science Bought and Sold collects a large portion of the most relevant works on the `economics of scientific knowledge production,' as well as other more recent and unpublished papers on the topic, and the long introductory essay by the editors is an illuminating guide to the field. In this critical notice, I argue that economic theorising about scientific research is providing a peaceful meeting point for many of the combatants in the `science wars,' one from which both epistemic and political questions about science can be more rationally set forth. | |||||||||
