This work investigates how the British political system integrates scientific and technological expertise into the formulation of national policy. Norman J. Vig examines the institutional structures and decision-making processes that governed the relationship between the scientific community and the government during the mid-20th century. By analyzing the evolution of advisory bodies and ministerial roles, the author argues that the political apparatus struggled to reconcile technical complexity with democratic accountability.
