I feel that we have lost our sense of purpose in studying science. It has become more of a vehicle
for pursuing other interests - be it spreading your gospel, racking up publications or making money.
It would be worthwhile to re-examine the writings of science philosophers and historians (Bronowski,
Gordon Brown, etc) to define what the role/mission of science is, what its limitations are, and how it should advise social and economic policy.
