Review Quotes:

"Addresses a crucial set of questions, and provides careful, convincing evidence that ties to industry affect the values that science students and faculty hold. This is an extraordinarily interesting and important question for scholars as well as an issue of national policy interest. If scientists and students are driven by values of the market, there are potentially damaging implications for the kinds of knowledge that are produced and the social relations between scientists, students, and their clients." -- Kelly Moore, Barnard College
