Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. The history of the intelligent design movement and its legacy Anti-science rhetoric in contemporary American politics has become a preoccupying concern for science educators, politicians, and government employees. But why are so many Americans primed to distrust the scientific establishment? This book offers a history of the intelligent design movement, analyzing the links between the legal contests over United States high school curricula and a radical rejection of contemporary scientific practice. Though closely associated with creationism, the intelligent design movement has its own story. It is related to but different from the various forms of creationism, and it has a unique background in natural theology and conservative politics. Typically perceived today as defunct after its public defeat in the 2005 Kitzmiller v. Dover court case, intelligent design did not disappear, and this book makes the case that its legacy is far more significant than we might think. Though it failed to achieve its goal of remaking contemporary science, intelligent design played a crucial role in legitimizing a mindset of suspicion which has taken hold in discussions of climate change, COVID-19, and vaccine hesitancy. In today's post-truth moment, where scientific expertise has become increasingly rejected, the volume showcases that the intelligent design movement's most lasting effects may not be in its challenge to evolution, but in the way it influenced the public's understanding of science and scientists. Designer Science makes the case that we are all grappling today with intelligent design's legacy, and it offers a history of how we got here. "Designer Science is the first full-length history of intelligent design, an antievolutionary movement from the turn of the 21st century that tried to rewrite the rules of science and had a lasting impact on public perception of science in America"-- Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
