Negative Positive
Title: I wish I could give a half star more.
Review: The book deserves 4.5 stars - it would be five, if it went beyond mostly exposition and started to do more analysis on how to overcome the problems expounded in it. Many of the problems discussed in _Prometheus Bedevilled_ (as the book itself points out) may have similar roots, so a first approximation to a solution to the woes might address these similar roots.As someone who feels that science can be used to better social conditions, it is imperative that science itself be used solve (paradoxically, and here's the problem) the issues surrounding the public view of science (and technology, it must be added) raised in this book. Some might be put off by the vocabulary level in the book, however, this is simply the sign of yet another problem in public policy.
Is the review positive or negative?
