"Science, Society and Innovation" is a thoughtful contribution to ongoing debates about democracy, participation, and technoscientific change. Rather than assuming that public engagement is inherently beneficial, this volume asks under what conditions participatory and deliberative practices strengthen democratic governance. Combining conceptual clarity with rich international case studies, it offers an important contribution to contemporary debates in STS and science governance.
