Paul Gross and Norman Levitt s book Higher Superstition, presented as a wake-up call to scientists unaware of the dangers posed by the science-bashers, set the shrill tone of this reaction and led to the appearance of a growing number of scare stories about an antiscience movement in the op-ed sections of newspapers across the country. Unwilling to be political scapegoats for the decline in the public funding of...

In a world increasingly beset by ethnocultural conflicts, the pursuit of cultural rights has taken on new urgency.

From the consequences of cyberspace for work and play to the uses and abuses of genetics in the O.J. trial, from world scarcity to world music, Ross interrogates the cultural forms...
