摘要

怀疑的商人:少数科学家如何掩盖从烟草烟雾到全球变暖等问题的真相。Naomi Oreskes和Erik M. Conway著。2010. 布鲁姆斯伯里出版社，纽约(ISBN 7981596916104)。355页，精装版。$ 27.00美元。Michael Behe, William Demski, Duane Gish——生物老师经常知道这些名字(臭名昭著的神创论者)。但是弗雷德·塞茨、弗雷德·辛格、罗伯特·杰斯特罗、比尔·尼伦伯格或史蒂夫·米洛伊呢?这些不太为人所知的个体对良好的科学构成了同样的威胁。在这本令人大开大悟的书中，历史学家Naomi Oreskes和Erik Conway详细描述了这些人(以及其他人)是如何故意策划公众对烟草、核冬天、酸雨、臭氧空洞、二手烟、全球变暖和DDT等科学共识的怀疑。一次又一次，同样的角色有效地阻碍了及时的政治行动。这些批评者都是科学家，但科学家们在他们的…

期刊介绍： The American Biology Teacher is an award winning and peer-refereed professional journal for K-16 biology teachers. Articles include topics such as modern biology content, biology teaching strategies for both the classroom and laboratory, field activities, and a wide range of assistance for application and professional development. Each issue features reviews of books, classroom technology products, and "Biology Today." Published 9 times a year, the journal also covers the social and ethical implications of biology and ways to incorporate such concerns into instructional programs.
