サイエンスの正当性は”民主的判断をくだす仕掛け(apparatus of democratic adjudication)”によって保証されている.....権力の地位にある者は自分が正しいと信じ込み、”不都合な真実(inconvenience opposition)”を隠そうとする。しかし、サイエンスをフェアーに執行するためには、真実がどんなに醜いものであれ白日のもとにさらさなければならない(You try to set up the game of science so that the truth will out despite this ugly side of human nature).
