Abstract
Modern science is inseparable from the society that supports it. Yet now more than ever before the scientist is encouraged to specialize and narrow his field of vision. Stewart Richards argues that it is vital to reverse this trend, and that all students of science — natural and social — should look at the context, roots and structure of their disciplines. 220 pages, hardback £17.50 (0 63113411 5) paperback £5.95 <o « i 13414 X)
