For the past 50 years a select group of scientists has provided advice to the US President, mostly out of the public eye, on issues ranging from the deployment of weapons to the launching of rockets to the moon to the use of stem cells to cure disease. The role of the presidential science adviser came under increasing scrutiny during the administration of George W. Bush, which was highly criticized by many for its use (and some say, misuse) of science. This edited volume includes, for the first time, the reflections of the presidential science advisers from Donald Hornig who served under Lyndon B. Johnson, to John Marburger, the previous science advisor, on their roles within both government and the scientific community. It provides an intimate glimpse into the inner workings of the White House, as well as the political realities of providing advice on scientific matters to the presidential of the United States. The reflections of the advisers are supplemented with critical analysis of the role of the science adviser by several well-recognized science policy practitioners and experts. This volume will be of interest to science policy and presidential history scholars and students.

The commission, consisting of nine highly placed public officials, scientists, educators, science advisers and science writers, looked at science advising as a presidential question, rather than one of science policy. The core proposition of this report is that the president needs a strong system of science advising which includes a skilled chief science adviser assisted by well-qualified staff and with ready access to nongovernmental sources of advice and knowledge. Furthermore, the commission recommends that a new president consider a spectrum of possible roles for this very flexible staff position and select the roles that best satisfy his needs rather than accept a particular historical model of science advice. A major responsibility of a science adviser is to give the president access to the expertise he needs from the science and engineering community inside and outside government.

The role of the President's science adviser, however large or small, is fraught with momentous consequences for national security. Yet all too often the subject is a neglected chapter in the literature of both science and presidential studies. In this sixth volume, the Miller Center draws on a group of the most able thinkers in the scientific community, most of whom have had experience in science advising. Their presentations, which were given in the winter and autumn of 1987, are included along with questions posed by the audience. Divided into three sectionsóPhilosophy, Practice, and Problems óthe volume views science advising through the eyes of the presidency. Contents: Introduction, Kenneth W. Thompson; Presidential Science Advising: Confronting Political Realities, Denis Prager; Discourse Between the Two Cultures, Father Edward A. Malloy; Presidential Science Advising, Richard L. Garwin; Talking about Science Advising, Richa Garwin; Science Advice to the Next President, William Carey; The Presidency and the Future, James Cannon; What to do When Experts Disagree, Harvey Brooks; and The Dilemma of the Golden Age, Frank Press.

This book is a history of the complex relations between scientific advisors, primarily physicists, and U.S. presidents in their role as decision makers about nuclear weapons and military strategy. The story, unsurprisingly, is one of considerable tension between the "experts" and the politicians, as scientists seek to influence policy and presidents alternate between accepting their advice and resisting or even ignoring it. First published in 1992, the book has been brought up to date to include the experiences of science advisors to President Clinton. In addition, the texts of eleven crucial documents, from the Einstein-Szilard letter to President Roosevelt (1939) to the announcement of the Strategic Defense Initiative by President Reagan (1983), have been added as appendixes.

The new Obama administration and the 110th Congress elected in November 2008 will face immediate challenges. Events will not permit a leisurely leadership transition. The prompt appointment of a Presidential science adviser and the nomination of top officials in the new administration with the knowledge and experience to address complex problems will be essential. The concerns of the nation regarding jobs and economic growth, health care, national security, energy, and the environment demand informed action. Each of these concerns-from national security, economic development, health care, and the environment, to education, energy, and natural resources-is touched in essential ways by the nation's science and technology enterprise. This is the fourth in a series of books from the National Academies on the presidential appointment process, each delivered during a presidential election year with the goal of providing recommendations to the President-elect about appointing his senior science and technology leadership and pursuing sustained improvements in the appointments process.
