Professor Steven L. Goldman narrates this unique lecture
as part of the Great Courses: History of Science series. He explores the
concept of the “science wars”, which revolves around the idea that science is either
an objective measure of reality or a provisional concept that can never be
certain or universal. This particular lectures emphasises how scientists come
to know what they know, and why their means of testing can be trusted.
“Science Wars: What Scientists Know And How They
Know It” is part of a greater series. Whereas methods of scientific testing may
be explained in other books, this one seeks to further examine why we use these
tests and why they are reliable.
Format: Audiobook
