    Book description

    Global issues, such as worsening climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic, have brought the clash between scientific experts and the broader voting public into stark relief. While experts perceive a 'war on science' that threatens truth and logic itself, many others perceive an elite effort to impose its will on the remainder of society. The Science Divide considers the issue of science and democracy in three societies-the United States, Sweden, and Japan-looking closely at pandemic and climate questions. The book also considers the Trump Administration's clash with academia and the emerging AI problem. Timely and comprehensive, The Science Divide is a key resource for anyone concerned about the fate of our scientific establishments and the future of our democracies.
