Exploring the role of values in scientific inquiry, Hugh Lacey examines the nature and meaning of values and looks at challenges to the view, from postmodernists, feminists, radical ecologists, third-world advocates and religious fundamentalists, that science is value free. He also focuses on discussions of "development," especially in third world countries. This paperback edition includes a new preface.
