General Note
Science Under Siege examines how politicized science is pushing us into this state of perpetual fear. Interviews with leading scientists are combined with on-site footage to produce a riveting reexamination of such toxic scares as Almar and dioxin. The conclusion - subverting science in the name of 'saftey' is a dangerous practice, one that is especially harmful to those most in need of society's protection.
