Abstract

A Ciba Foundation Volume A. DE REUCK, M. GOLDSMITH and J. KNIGHT (Eds) London: J. and A. Churchill. 1968 Pp. xiii + 309. Price £3

Science policy is a new and vigorous bloom (£10 m. spent in the UK on R & D in 1939, £1000 m. today) in the national garden and its cultivation has lately been widely undertaken by scientists, natural and social, educationalists, philosophers and politicians. Such a range is essential upon examination since scientific policy decisions are inextricably bound to decisions in education, in business and in industry, not to mention national prestige.
