Why should this list exist?[edit]

Is this list redundant, given that there is now a Category: Books_about_the_politics_of_science? I think it should be sufficient to just include each book in the category.

Lists and categories are synergistic — the benefits of their redundancy are covered in WP:CLN. Johnfos (talk) 09:16, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It should at least contain more detail about each entry, eg. ISBN, topic, author. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:12, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
