Current title
Why Trust Oreskes’s Plumber?
A Sober Satire on Science, Expertise, and the Trouble with Public Trust
What makes expertise worthy of trust when most of us cannot independently reproduce the judgments on which we are asked to rely? The book examines that problem through science, institutions, consensus, methodological rules, accountability, and the ordinary expectations we bring to other forms of expertise.
