Science News Is Met By The Public With A Mixture Of Fascination And Disengagement. On The One Hand, Americans Are Inflamed By Topics Ranging From The Question Of Whether Or Not Pluto Is A Planet To The Ethics Of Stemcell Research. But The Complexity Of Scientific Research Can Also Be Confusing And Overwhelming, Causing Many To Divert Their Attentions Elsewhere And Leave Science To The Experts.Whether They Follow Science News Closely Or Not, Americans Take For Granted That Discoveries In The Sciences Are Occurring Constantly. Few, However, Stop To Consider How These Advancesand The Debates They Sometimes Lead Tocontribute To The Changing Definition Of The Term Science Itself. Going Beyond The Issuecentered Debates, Daniel Patrick Thurs Examines What These Controversies Say About How We Understand Science Now And In The Future. Drawing On His Analysis Of Magazines, Newspapers, Journals And Other Forms Of Public Discourse, Thurs Describes How Scienceoriginally Used As A Synonym For General Knowledgebecame A Term To Distinguish Particular Subjects As Elite Forms Of Study Accessible Only To The Highly Educated.
