Daniel S. Greenberg
An incisive and expertly conducted inquiry into the realities and myths of scientific participation in environmental policy and politics. Given the abundance of environmental issues on the national agenda, this is an especially timely and valuable book.

"When scientists engage in policymaking, do they infuse their advice with values and policy prescriptions that go beyond the objective science? We've long known that the answer is 'often, yes,' but Ann Campbell Keller advances the debate ten leagues. With keen interpretive skills, she shows exactly how, where,
when, and why scientists cross the porous boundary between science and policy. A marvelous piece of scholarship and a great read for anyone interested in policymaking and science."--Deborah Stone, author of Policy Paradox: The Art of Political Decision Making
