The Scientist
Date: July 21, 1997
Gerald Holton
Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics and Professor of History of Science
Harvard University
Holton also has been encouraging scientists to become aware of what he and others see as growing antiscience attitudes in parts of academia, the media, and movements to delegitimize science. His book Science and Anti-Science (Harvard University Press, 1993) traces the history of the struggle against rationality and science.
A reader of THE SCIENTIST since its first issue, Holton says: "THE SCIENTIST offers the kind of in-depth, well-researched articles on topical problems in science and science policy to which other journals often don't give enough time or space."
