Publisher Description: Wildlife, War, and God provides a scientist's perspective on science and government. The first six chapters are about government control of science with the Endangered Species Act and wildlife. Examples include sage grouse, polar bears, bison, wolves, and spotted owls; and the scientifically subjective designation of subspecies and populations is explained in detail. The selective use of science by the government regarding caribou and Alaska oil fields is also reviewed.
