The scientific method delivers prosperity, yet scientific practice
has become subject to corrupting influences from within and without
the scientific community. This essential reference is intended to
help remedy those threats. The authors identify eight essential
criteria for the practice of science and provide checklists to help
avoid costly failures in scientific practice. Not only for
scientists, this book is for all stakeholders of the broad
enterprise of science. Science administrators, research funders,
journal editors, and policymakers alike will find practical
guidance on how they can encourage scientific research that
produces useful discoveries. Journalists, commentators, and lawyers
can turn to this text for help with assessing the validity and
usefulness of scientific claims. The book provides practical
guidance and makes important recommendations for reforms in science
policy and science administration. The message of the book is
complemented by Nobel Laureate Vernon L. Smith's foreword, and an
afterword by Terence Kealey.
