The golem : what everyone should know about science / Harry Collns, Trevor Pinch

by H. M. (Harry M.) Collins, Trevor J. Pinch

This study examines the construction of scientific certainty by analysing case studies ranging from relativity to cold fusion. It argues that scientific knowledge results from the interpretation of ambiguous data within frameworks organised by scientists.
