More about the book
The book explores the critical role of informed citizenry in governance, as emphasized by Thomas Jefferson. It delves into the current landscape where scientific progress faces significant threats from a coordinated war on science, encompassing identity politics, ideology, and industrial interests. This conflict has led to a troubling decline in rational discourse within Western democracies, where evidence-based decision-making is increasingly overshadowed by populism and vocal minorities, affecting crucial areas like climate change, health care, and technology.
