Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Behind today's headlines stands an unobtrusive army of science advisors-panels of scientific, medical, and engineering experts evaluate the safety of the food we eat, the drugs we take, and the cars we drive. This book studies, theoretically and empirically, the social process through which the credibility of expert advice is produced, challenged, and sustained.
