Science Under Siege: The Politicians' War on Nature and Truth

by Todd Wilkinson

Putting their careers and livelihoods on the line, the eight government scientists chronicled in "Science Under Siege" stood up against corporate greed and political corruption—and paid the price. When natural science, driven by a thirst for truth, collides with political science, driven by a hunger for wealth and power, the struggle is for our air, our water, and our land.
