> In the decades following World War II, American scientists were
> celebrated for their contributions to social and technological
> progress. They were also widely criticized for their increasingly
> close ties to military and governmental power--not only by outside
> activists but from among the ranks of scientists themselves.
> Disrupting Science tells the story of how scientists formed new
> protest organizations that democratized science and made its pursuit
> more transparent. The book explores how scientists weakened their
> own authority even as they invented new forms of political action.
