Science for the Public's Contemporary Science Issues and Innovations, June 11, 2019. Lee McIntyre, Ph.D., Research Fellow at the Center for Philosophy and History of Science at Boston University and Instructor in Ethics at Harvard Extension School. Dr. McIntyre is author of The Scientific Attitude and several other books on science and culture for general readers. In an era when science has contributed so much to the progress of humanity, there is a resurgence of anti-reason and rejection of scientific facts. These challenges call for a mental adjustment: the scientific attitude. Dr. McIntyre explains how to adapt that attitude and why it is necessary today.
