Scientism: The New Orthodoxy is a comprehensive philosophical
overview of the question of scientism, discussing the role and
place of science in the humanities, religion, and the social
sciences. Clarifying and defining the key terms in play in
discussions of scientism, this collection identifies the dimensions
that differentiate science from scientism. Leading scholars
appraise the means available to science, covering the impact of the
neurosciences and the new challenges it presents for the law and
the self. Illustrating the effect of scientism on the social
sciences, and the humanities, Scientism: the New Orthodoxy
addresses what science is and what it is not. This provocative
collection is an important contribution to the social sciences and
the humanities in the 21st century. Contributors include: Peter
Hacker, Bastiaan van Fraassen, Daniel N. Robinson, Kenneth
Schaffner, Roger Scruton, James K.A. Smith, Richard Swinburne,
Lawrence Principe and Richard N. Williams.
