Science as Golem.
Pinch, Trevor
Academe, v82 n1 p16-18 Jan-Feb 1996
A new view of science that goes beyond conventional perceptions of science as either good or bad is proposed. The new perspective sees science as process rather than product, bringing together scientific skills and human insight. It is seen as important for the public to understand that expert disagreement is part of the scientific enterprise. (MSE)
