图书简介
This book presents cutting edge insights on how science engages with ethics. It uniquely explores epistemic values as well as how ethical concerns meld with science in individual and collective decision making. It provides readers with the necessary tools in order to engage in systematic, impartial and evidence-based discussions. With contributions from leading thinkers across a range of disciplines, this book presents a diversity of approaches that provoke deeper thinking about science and ethics. It begins with an exploration of what scientific method is and what a scientific method of analysis can reveal that other forms of discovery cannot. The book considers the challenges facing scientists, analysing past violations of scientific ethics and historical efforts to impose institutional mechanisms to avoid future violations. It considers data manipulation and the role of pseudoscience, particularly in scientific communication. The second part of the book presents concrete examples to show how science and the scientific method more broadly can produce important information by revealing findings that are counter-intuitive. Chapters also explore the importance of evidence-based science for political polarization and rational decision-making. The discussion considers how trust operates and how good science can go wrong, contribute to problems such as homelessness, and distorting truths, such as climate change discourse.
