The Debate

Science is the truth of the modern age. But the very system that determines what counts as science, peer review, is itself under attack. Is it a powerful way of keeping corruption out of science, or itself a corrupt system? What counts as knowledge and who should decide?

 

Nature editor Chris Surridge, outspoken astrophysicist Piers Corbyn and cyborg and scholar Kevin Warwick question the scientific method.
