What is science? How is scientific knowledge affected by the society that produces it? Does scientific knowledge directly correspond to reality? Can we draw a line between science and pseudo-science? Will it ever be possible for computers to undertake scientific investigation independently? Is there such a thing as feminist science? In this book the author addresses questions such as these using a technique of 'cognitive play', which creates and explores new links between the ideas and results of contemporary history, philosophy, and sociology of science. New ideas and approaches are applied to a wide range of case studies, many of them from controversial and contested science. This book will be of interest to historians and sociologists of science, to anyone interested in science studies, and to educated general readers with an interest in the history, philosophy, and social context of science.

Scent identification lineups by dogs (Canis familiaris) are performed differently in different countries, but basically follow a match-to-sample-like protocol. Different experimental designs were tested using certified Dutch police tracker dog/handler combinations. The standard scent identification lineup design currently used in the Netherlands is compared with an older design and with two new designs that cater for varying motivation, individual preferences and physical limitations of the dogs. The designs are evaluated on performance and forensic prerequisites. Experimental design significantly affects the performance of the combinations: incorporating a control trial as an obligatory 'calibration' for the dog leads to the best results and meets the most forensic prerequisites.
