      "Defending Science--Within Reason: Between Scientism and Cynicism," by Susan Haack is like having a lively after-dinner conversation with an intelligent reader of the science studies literature who has little patience for academic extravagances and an eye for the bon mot. Susan Haack ably resists the temptation to draw negative epistemic consequences from the messiness of science. Science is messy, but this does not mean that it is any less rational than, for example, deductive logic or mathematics.
