Naked Science is about contested domains and includes different science cultures: physics, molecular biology, primatology, immunology, ecology, medical environmental, mathematical and navigational domains. While the volume rests on the assumption that science is not autonomous, the book is distinguished by its global perspective. Examining knowledge systems within a planetary frame forces thinking about boundaries that silence or affect knowledge-building. Consideration of ethnoscience and technoscience research within a common framework is overdue for raising questions about deeply held beliefs and assumptions we all carry about scientific knowledge. We need a perspective on how to regard different science traditions because public controversies should not be about a glorified science or a despicable science.

Laura Nader
Naked Science is written for students, scientists, and citizens interesting in the question 'What is science really like?' Contributors to Naked Science investigate the question in contested domains and different cultures of science--from physics, molecular biology, and primatology, to immunology, ecology, and the medical environment, and on to mathematical and navigational domains.
