Book Description
This book explores Pierre Bourdieu's philosophy and sociology of science, which, though central to his thought, have been largely neglected in critical examinations of his work. Addressing the resultant confusion that surrounds Bourdieu's sociologized philosophy of science, it expounds his epistemology and sociology of science, situating it within the context of Anglo-American post-positivist philosophy of science and shedding light on the critique of relativist sociology of science that emerges from his field theory. From a detailed critique of Bourdieu's reflexive sociology and his attempt to enhance the uneasy epistemic status of the social sciences, the author draws on the thought of Jürgen Habermas to suggest critical ethnography as a way of going beyond Bourdieu’s critical theory. As such, Bourdieu's Philosophy and Sociology of Science will appeal to sociologists, philosophers, and scholars across the social sciences with interests in the work of Bourdieu and the sociology and philosophy of science.

Book Description
For some time now it has been established British government policy to foster closer links among, scientists, government and industry. The author has assessed how successful this marriage between science and industry has been, paying close attention to: the effects of high profile initiatives; conflict from establishing intellectual property, particularly among research scientists, academic institutions and private sector partners;conflict of interest among funding partners where more than one is needed. This review and bibliography, which provide an insight into the background of the science policy operated by successive British governments, will be a valuable resource for scientists, industry and policy makers.
