This two-year study, dating from 1972, examined a group of "eminent" physical scientists (n>40) who were repeatedly interviewed and questioned about their methodology and attitudes toward science and scientists. The purpose of the study was to explore how practicing scientists "actually do" science and what they think about the nature of science. The results suggest that there is a disconnect between the often-articulated goals of scientific objectivity and actual performance of these goals, resulting in a mythos surrounding the ideal of an objective, bias-free scientific community.
The author, Ian I. Mitroff, is regarded as one of the founders of crisis management theory. He has authored more than 300 peer-reviewed articles and 30 books on topics related to business policy, organizational crisis management, applied epistemology, and the sociology of science.
