« De tous les moyens pour ouvrir l’intelligence, il n’y en a point de meilleur que la curiosité. »– Abbé PlucheAujourd’hui, tout le monde peut connaître les résultats de la science… mais il a fallu beaucoup de temps pour y arriver.Cicéron a été le premier à traduire le langage scientifique pour que ses concitoyens puissent le comprendre.Ensuite, Galilée a utilisé le dialogue pour tenter de convaincre les aristotéliciens que la Terre bougeait. Il a échoué, mais son exemple a perduré et a inspiré d’autres scientifiques à faire de même, jusqu’à ce que la révolution scientifique initiée par Copernic soit acceptée.Enfin, l’idée d’évolutionnisme de Charles Darwin a fait l’objet d’un vif débat à Oxford, et les périodiques satiriques victoriens s’en sont même moqués ; mais grâce à tout cela, la théorie de l’arbre de vie s’est répandue et est devenue largement connue.Et il y a bien plus encore : la première communauté scientifique, l’origine du processus de peer review et même les revues scientifiques les plus célèbres, comme Nature...Découvrez la merveilleuse histoire qui a conduit de l’autorité scientifique à la participation du public à la science.
