Sinopsis

Humankind's greatest collective achievement, Science, is under threat. Science vs Superstition challenges the common belief that in today's world there is no such thing as progress which is not dangerous or at least questionable. While many people seem to lack the vision of a genuinely better future, the authors believe that it is time to make the case for a more positive attitude towards the future - a future that is made better through science.

Acerca del autor

JAMES PANTON is lecturer in politics at St John's College, University of Oxford. He is co-founder of The Manifesto Club (www.manifestoclub.com), an organisation launched in January 2006 to develop an enlightened, free-spirited and humanist alternative to the political malaise in contemporary society. He is co-convenor of The Battle of Ideas, an annual festival social, political, scientific, academic and cultural debate; and was a founder member of Pro-Test, the Oxford based campaign in defence of vivisection. James's academic work is on the recent history and contemporary context of social and political thought, especially in to ideas of politics, democracy and rights. He is the author of a number of academic articles on politics, education and 21st century intellectual life, and he writes and comments regularly in the media on issues around vivisection, politics and education.
