This is the first book to focus on science as a social institution based on a comprehensive analysis of the thought of Foucault and Habermas. A key aspect of this book is its standpoint which critiques science, whilst simultaneously interrogating philosophical critique which must in a certain sense accommodate science, and its effect on modernity.

John McIntyre is a research affiliate at the University of Sydney. He has tutored and lectured at University of Sydney and Melbourne School of Continental Philosophy. His research is focussed on science, technology and their relationship to society and draws on philosophical thought from across both the analytic and continental philosophical traditions. Prior to commencing formal studies in philosophy, McIntyre worked as an environmental planner, which provides his work with an acute awareness of the complex interface between society's democratic and legal institutions and scientific knowledge.
