1. 1. Oracles Of Science

   Celebrity Scientists Versus God and Religion

   

   A critical examination of how high-profile scientists can become de facto public oracles, overstepping the proper bounds of scientific expertise by making sweeping moral and policy claims; the book argues that elevating celebrity scientists to unquestioned authority weakens democratic deliberation, confuses empirical findings with value judgments, and calls for intellectual humility, clearer distinctions between science and ethics, and more inclusive public engagement in decisions that involve scientific knowledge.
