Living with science and miracles

“This is an excellent book that brings new insight to our understanding of vaccination revolts. It highlights the fact that such controversies cannot be separated from the local culture of science and politics. The book addresses issues of theory and methods for science in society studies in the African context where religion plays a strong role in public debates. Falade shows that the upheavals that accompany societal change have their roots in local common sense which is both resistant to and an agent of change. The book should be required reading for public health administrators researchers teachers and students of science communication and media studies with particular focus on African perspectives.” -Professor Martin Bauer London School of Economics & Political Science United Kingdom.
