Description
Complex scientific and moral problems are not solved by censoring dissenting opinions, erasing content from the internet, or vilifying scientists and authors who present information that challenges those in power. Censorship, on the contrary, leads to greater distrust of government institutions and large corporations. Pointing out obvious facts is neither ideology nor politics: scientific errors and mistakes in public policy occur - and they can have devastating consequences. Mistakes can result from faulty analysis, haste, arrogance, and sometimes even corruption. Whatever the cause, solutions come from open inquiry, introspection, and constant reassessment. Ideally, science and public policy are never static. They are a process, a collaboration, a discussion, and a partnership. If the powerful people whom this book challenges claim it contains misinformation, our response is simple: Tell us what you believe is incorrect, present your best arguments, and offer the best available support for them. We support and encourage dialogue, criticism, engagement - and every suggestion will be heard and considered.
