Science Besieged is a project of Ars Hermeneutica directed at countering anti-scientism in whatever guise it appears and at increasing understanding about science and the scientific enterprise while decreasing hostility towards it.
This online resource is a browsing encyclopedia, a collection of articles on topics that examine the role of science in society and that expose, document, and elucidate attacks on science, largely through presenting the positive work and words of scientists, science supporters, and science advocates. Our goal is not to antagonize, cajole, inveigle, or nag.
Science Besieged tells stories that show how the threads of science and technology are woven into the fabric of society. As an antidote to anti-scientism we invite readers to explore and discover the value and excitement of science for themselves.
