Description
Issues spawned by the headlong pace of developments in science and technology fill the courts. The realm of the law is sometimes at a loss-constrained by its own assumptions and practices, Jasanoff suggests. This book exposes American law's long-standing involvement in constructing, propagating, and perpetuating myths about science and technology.
