Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition of Alexander Kohn's examination of fraud, error, misconduct, and self-deception in science and medicine. Kohn surveys both deliberate scientific fraud and less clear-cut cases involving bias, faulty interpretation, questionable methodology, plagiarism, forgery, and institutional pressures within scientific research. Among the cases discussed are scientific hoaxes and controversies from medicine, biology, psychology, archaeology, and other fields. The rear jacket notably illustrates the notorious case of William Summerlin's mouse, one of the better-known episodes of alleged research fraud of the twentieth century.
