This book provides a framework for analysing the changing relationship between politics and science in America. Professor Guston charts how a long-lasting 'social contract' between scientists and politicians after World War II lapsed into mutual distrust by the 1980s and describes 'boundary organizations' then formed to mend the relationship.
