"Brown... fights fire with fire, in the manner of Madison's treatment of factions: accept the politicization [of science] but fix the politics by creating a complex 'framework of democratic representation' throughout. His recommendations are quite detailed, and based on a deep, enjoyable analysis... This is, in fact, a thinker's book, and one closes it with the thought that 'well, it just might work.' Highly recommended." M. Berheide Choice

"Rather than adding one more demonstration of science's intertwinement with politics, or one more call for increased public participation in science policy, Brown proposes a rethinking of democratic institutions... [T]his book should be considered essential reading for those interested in ongoing discussions about the relationships between science and politics." -- R. Holifield, "Contemporary Political Theory"
" "Science in Democracy" presents a useful collection of arguments for anyone concerned with the politics of science... Democratizing science, [Brown] suggests, is less a matter of increasing public participation than of supporting a diverse ecology of modes of political representation." -- A. Moore, "Social Studies of Science"
"Not only does [Brown] grapple with the complex values that are required by democratic representation; he also looks at how various institutions can and do embody those values and how we might do better... His book is clearly a must-read for those engaged in this issue." -- M.J. Brown, "Isis"
