	Cheap Thoughts
		Science is uniquely distinguished from other human practices: it is the only activity in which the constraints of reality have brought to the quest for deep answers an effective consensus across all the variations that in other respects divide the human species.
		Science is built upon facts, as a house is built of stones; but an accumulation of facts is no more a science that a heap of stones is a house.
		Science is based on experiment, on a willingness to challenge old dogma, on an openness to see the universe as it really is. Accordingly, science sometimes requires courage at the very least the courage to question the conventional wisdom.

		Science and technology began appearing as a subject of fiction in the 19th century.
		Wells began to write stories with science themes in 1894, demonstrating more interest in biology and evolution than in other sciences, and more concern about the social consequences of invention than about the accuracy of the invention itself.
		Most early science fiction was published in magazines and aimed at a readership of boys and young men.

		As the head of the natural sciences and also a professor, Himes was able to travel the world sharing his research with others and obtained new scientific theories and advances (source 2).
		The demand for science course was so high around the year 1865 that Himes pushed for and was granted the ability to teach elective lab courses at the college (source 2).
		Science may not have seemed important to many other people in the past, but thanks to men like Dr. Benjamin Rush, who was willing to take chances; natural sciences had a chance to be taught.

	The critique of science becomes academic, by Brian Martin
		The roles of science in imperialism, exploitation of workers, war, racism and oppression were of central concern.
		Many of the radical science activists have been driven by their commitments to a more democratic, egalitarian and peaceful society, and have worked through various social movements, including the labour movement, the environmental movement, the peace movement and the feminist movement.
		Science and technology are very much involved in struggles over wealth and its distribution, via technology transfer, the green revolution, ownership of information, workplace technologies, ideologies of the market, and many others (Third World Network, 1988).

		Most often, the dialogue between religion and science is initiated by the discoveries of modern science-big bang cosmology, evolution, or quantum theory, for example.
		He approaches the dialogue from a little-explored perspective in which theology shapes the argument and sets the agenda of questions to be considered.
		In the final chapter, the author defends the appropriateness of addressing issues of science and religion from the specific standpoint of his Christian belief.

	Stehr: The Salt of Social Science
		The search for knowledge in both the natural and the social sciences has, invariably been justified in terms of practical reasons which have included prominently the improvement of basic existential conditions of human life and the emancipation of society from the irrational forces of particular forms of social conduct as well as natural forces.
		The current and perhaps widespread feeling of a profound malaise affecting social science, and the premature conviction among some that social science has been largely impotent in practice, is not only, but surely also, linked to a specific image of the ways in which social science knowledge becomes a powerful medium in society.
		Whatever one may think of Schelsky's notion of a new kind of class struggle, at least he is sensitive to the reciprocal transformation of society and social science while Scott and Shore chose to treat the realm of politics in the context of their analysis as a constant.

		He established that the science of heredity could be concerned with deviations measured in statistical units.
		In 1874, William Stanley Jevons, in Principles of Science, demonstrated a symbolic and logical method, intended to supplant Boole and John Venn, that involved permutations of ABC corresponding to the eight compartments of Venn's three-circle diagram.
		In 1883, Mach, in Die Mechanik in ihrer Entwicklung, translated as The Science of Mechanics: A Critical and Historical Account of Its Development, attempted to eliminate metaphysics by reducing science to the sum of what appears to the senses, and, in particular, attacked Newton's assumption that absolute rotation is observable.

		1865 Gregor Mendel, a curious Austrian monk, publishes a study showing how living things-he was working with pea plants at the time-inherit physical characteristics from their parents and pass them along to their offspring.
		Cross short plants with short plants, for example, and the resulting crop will be (you guessed it) short.
		Incidentally, scientists believe that Brother Gregor-though he really did unravel the laws of inheritance-may have fudged his data a bit to make the pattern he found "cleaner." In real life, data never come out that good.

		Another of Himes’s major contributions to the science program at Dickinson College was his support for the construction of a science building.
		This meant that there were now three science professors at the college, and caused a division of the Natural Science department.
		Additionally, each one was hired after there were already three science professors at the school, and there was no point before 1899 when there were ever more than three science professors at one time.

	Runaway World by Michael Green / Running away from Science
		For the truly remarkable thing about the growth of modern science is that it took place in a Christian civilisation, recently liberated from the shackles of authoritarianism by the Renaissance and the Reformation.
		On the negative side, since science lends no support to the belief in God or immortality, these beliefs must be discarded, according to Russell, who prides himself on being the first to have introduced a really scientific philosophy.
		Fundamentally, science is concerned with description, and religion with encounter: science is concerned with the material aspect of things, but religion belongs to the world of personal relationships with the emphasis on the aspect of mind.

		Featuring sixteen never-before-published cases, Sight Unseen probes two newly uncovered patterns in alien abduction: cases of UFO "invisibility" and reports of genetically altered alien beings who interact with humans during their routine lives.
		Included are an examination of cloaking devices for aircraft, mind-control technologies, and teleportation achieved in the lab.
		Perhaps the most compelling argument to support these cases lies in the startling and controversial new science of transgenics that actually allows for the creation of alien/human beings.

		Using models supplied by physicists, Yeats sought for the basic units of poetic force, both through his sequence A Vision and through his belief in, and defence of, the purity of symbols.
		Pound's whole critical vocabulary, Albright claims, aims at drawing art and science together in a search for poetic precision, the tiniest textual particles that held poems together.
		Through a series of patient and original readings, Quantum Poetics demonstrates how modernists created a whole new way of thinking about poetry and science as two different aspects of the same quest.
