Description

Science and Public Policy: A Philosophical Introduction by Ashley Graham Kennedy explores the relationship between science and public debate. The book examines how science is applied in policy-making, discussing its limitations and the importance of understanding scientific evidence and data interpretation. The author delves into the role of science communication in the public sphere, exploring the concept of scientific expertise and its use in informing policy decisions. By examining real-world examples, Kennedy sheds light on how science can be effectively used to inform public policies in a democratic society. Ultimately, this book aims to show that public debates over science are often not about the science itself, but rather about what policies will follow from it.
