I'm curious about what she means about the scientific consensus not being knowledge-based in the Bendectin case? I remember Bendectin because I was pregnant while I lived in the US and while I lived in Canada. I could only use Bendectin in Canada because of these lawsuits in the US. Linda

In Chapter 3, I begin my positive analysis of the social conditions for knowledge. I explore the question of when a consensus is knowledge based. I argue that a consensus is knowledge based when knowledge is the best explanation of the consensus. I identify three conditions – social diversity, apparent consilience of evidence, and meta‐agreement, for knowledge being the best explanation of a consensus. In Chapter 4, I illustrate my argument by analyzing the recent controversy about the safety of the drug Bendectin. fls - I thought this might contain what you are looking for
Thanks Brian. It looks interesting so far, but it definitely won't be a quick read.
