"In the 70s and 80s Kuhn and the new sociology of science seriously put into question our received notions of scientific objectivity. In "Rethinking Objectivity" leading scholars in several disciplines confront the issue head on, and those who have worked empirically on questions of objectivity for years contribute their results. An exciting book that fills a gap in the study of science!"--Karin Knorr-Cetina, Universitat Bielefeld
