How Tto Think About Science

If science is neither cookery, nor angelic virtuosity, then what is 
it? 
Modern societies have tended to take science for granted as a way of 
knowing, ordering and controlling the world. Everything was subject to 
science, but science itself largely escaped scrutiny. This situation 
has changed dramatically in recent years. Historians, sociologists, 
philosophers and sometimes scientists themselves have begun to ask 
fundamental questions about how the institution of science is 
structured and how it knows what it knows. David Cayley talks to some 
of the leading lights of this new field of study.
