Galileo's Middle Finger

Galileo’s Middle Finger is a riveting account of the challenges faced by scientists and researchers in defending their search for truth in the face of the politics of identity. Through the lens of Alice Dreger’s own experiences as an intersex rights activist and defender of scientists, this book provides an engrossing education in ethics, activism, and science. It's a clarion call to intellectual responsibility and an impassioned defense of intellectual freedom that shows just how important it is for rigorous pursuit of truth and justice to prevail in our democracy.
