  Argues that the moral responsibilities of scientists require the consideration of values even at the heart of science. Heather E. Douglas lobbies for a new ideal in which values serve an essential function throughout scientific inquiry, but where the role values play is constrained at key points, thus protecting the integrity and objectivity of science.
