Abstract

A precise philosophical definition of science is as elusive as one for art. However, some candidates are clearly beyond the scope afforded by common sense and good taste. This specifi cally includes commoditized, dogmatic, approval-seeking, agenda-driven efforts that amount to nothing more than bogus science. © 2016 IEEE.
