The Science Wars are an ongoing conflict between natural sciences (like physics) and social sciences (like anthropology), with some intermediate sciences (like psychology and medicine) caught in the middle. The anthropologists argue that science is just a social construction, while the physicists try to defend their assertion of objective truth.
The physicists are of course right on this one; but in this essay I consider ways that natural scientists themselves are partly responsible for the misunderstandings that led to the conflict in the first place.
