Readers learn to design and implement a research project that forwards scientific and social justice ends. Through conceptual tools, examples, and exercises that illustrate community-based research gone wrong and right, the book covers how scientific processes have been misused, how to develop non-hierarchical and long-term relations and practices, and how researchers can repair relations with communities and environments. Transforming Science is a guide for practicing the science we are for: science for and with the people.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by the Science, Transformation, Accountability, and Resistance (STAR) Collective\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChristoph Hanssmann  \u003c\/strong\u003eis Assistant Professor of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies at the University of California, Davis.
