About this product
Product Information
A scientist friend asked Bruno Latour point-blank: Do you believe in reality? Taken aback by this strange query, Latour offers his meticulous response in Pandora's Hope. It is a remarkable argument for understanding the reality of science in practical terms. In this book Latour, identified by Richard Rorty as the new bete noire of the science worshipers, gives us his most philosophically informed book since Science in Action. Through case studies of scientists in the Amazon analyzing soil and in Pasteur's lab studying the fermentation of lactic acid, he shows us the myriad steps by which events in the material world are transformed into items of scientific knowledge. Through many examples in the world of technology, we see how the material and human worlds come together and are reciprocally transformed in this process. Why, Latour asks, did the idea of an independent reality, free of human interaction, emerge in the first place? His answer to this question, harking back to the debates between Might and Right narrated by Plato, points to the real stakes in the so-called science wars: the perplexed submission of ordinary people before the warring forces of claimants to the ultimate truth.

My bible arrived today. I’m very happy with it. It’s better in real life than in the pictures. It was well packaged in protective cardboard packaging. The bible itself is hardback with a glossy removable paper cover. It also came in a cardboard sleeve which protects it if you are moving around with it eg if you take your bible to church every Sunday, the corners won’t get damaged because it is in a cardboard sleeve. I will get another one for my daughter. It arrived quickly - it is C5 size
