		The history of science is not a mere record of isolated discoveries; it is a narrative of the conflict of two contending powers, the expansive force of the human intellect on one side, and the compression arising from traditionary faith and human interest on the other.
		Science must constantly be reminded that her purposes are not the only purposes and that the order of uniform causation which she has use for may be enveloped in a wider order.
		Science cannot be ignored or rejected, because it is bound up with modern technique; it is essential alike to prosperity in peace and to victory in war.

	On The Lookout (October, 1931)
		Science is intrigued, puzzled, and disturbed at being forced to recognize such a Unity under all phenomena.
		It is barred at present by the subservience of science to the mere details of matter, partly under urge of utilitarianism, partly due to a pettifogging love of small particularities which seems to possess the present scholastic mind.
		It is barred by the fact that the various discoveries and suspicions of science, when put together in their proper order, enforce a spiritual and metaphysical view of the Universe disastrous in the extreme to all materialistic ideas.

		Science is nothing but developed perception, interpreted intent, common sense rounded out and minutely articulated.
		Science is facts; just as houses are made of stones, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
		In science, 'fact' can only mean 'confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent.' I suppose that apples might start to rise tomorrow, but the possibility does not merit equal time in physics classrooms.

	Science and The Secret Doctrine (Part 17 of 103)
		But orthodox science bends all effort to prove life mechanical in its nature; hence, unless the existence of consciousness in the Universe at all be denied, consciousness is immanent in all matter, its manifestation solely a matter of degree.
		Through all mythology -- symbolic science -- the Ocean of Matter, with which the moon is associated, is female, and Spirit, of which the sun is traditional symbol, of whose forces it is actual transmitter, is male.
		Science itself now knows that physical sex differences are but the natural outcome of the play of physiological forces on the lowest planes.

	Science & Spirit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In today’s science fiction, space exploration is less likely to happen for its own sake and more likely to serve larger purposes, such as colonizing other worlds or repelling threats.
		Science fiction is inextricably linked to the rise of the machine’s role in society; indeed, the origins of science fiction can be traced to the Industrial Revolution and James Watts’ perfection of the steam engine.
		Although a basic belief in adaptability still characterizes most of science fiction—even in its most current works—a consensus about the primacy of the human species or the perfectibility of the human condition is far harder to find.

	An Essay on Science Service, 1977
		Though the sciences of less spectacular phenomena were not as popular as the sciences of exotic phenomena, they received a great deal of attention as well.
		The confusion of science with technology inevitable results in the association of science with the deleterious, as well as beneficial effects of technology, yielding mixed attitudes in the public's image of science.
		Perhaps the American public was jaded with the commonplace benefits of applied science, and found a glimmer of excitement and romance in the intellectual adventures of the astronomer and the archeologist as they pursued horizons which seemed always to recede beyond their grasp.

	Science Fiction: Comments, Abbreviations
		Science fiction, all science fiction, is about the universe, and the wonder of what exists and why.
		Science Fiction, as embodied in such books as A.C. Clarke's Rendevous with Rama, and shows like Space:1999 and Star Trek, takes these two opposites and attempts to explain our place in the universe.
		Maybe this is why I've always had a soft spot for that branch of Science Fiction (the "American" faction?) that says that humanity has a special place in the universe, and is destined for greatness.

		An example of the latter is an exemplary series of studies on raising the state-wide minimum age for drinking, and its effects in terms of reducing highway crashes among young drivers (Wagenaar, 1982).
		In 1928 Robert Kelso noted that "The present lack of a science of public welfare follows naturally upon the fact that `human society' embraces well nigh the totality of man's experience; therefore a science of social relationship must rest upon knowledge the most general and far-reaching and upon deductions most profound" (p.
		Skinner has provided us with both-behavior analysis as a comprehensive theoretical framework grounded in natural science, and intensive time series investigations of single or of a very small number of units of analysis, also known as a functional analysis.

	Whatever Happened to Little Albert? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		There has undoubtedly been some distortion due to the simple retelling of the Watson and Rayner study, but a more dynamic influence on textbook accounts seems to have been the authors' opinions of behaviorism as a valid theoretical viewpoint.
		As discussed by Samelson (1974) and Baumgardner (1977), modern citations of classic studies can often be seen as attempts by current theorists to build a false sense of continuity into the history of psychology.
		To cite another classic "origin," the Army's psychological testing program during World War I is taken by some clinical psychologists as an early example of how the profession of psychology has always grown in relation to its increased usefulness.
