This much-needed mediative perspective on the question of whether scientific knowledge is objective and universal or socially mediated also focuses on whether scientific truths are independent of human values and belief. 7 halftones. 15 line drawings.This work argues that to criticize the Enlightenment ideal is not to criticize science itself and that to defend science one need not defend the Enlightenment ideal. The book thus stakes out a middle ground in these debates by showing how science can be better conceived in other ways.
