Shows how science has become a major contested cultural symbol, and suggests that we need a new ‘post-normal’ synthesis in which the old debates are transcended. Science is not about demonstrations by experts, but dialogue among stakeholders. This is the new face of science, one which gives Kuhn’s seminal insights new life.
