	President Truman on Science Funding: 1948
		Almost 50 years ago, in September 1948, President Harry Truman addressed the American Association for the Advancement of Science on its 100th anniversary.
		Its report, entitled Science and Public Policy,' was submitted last fall to the 80th Congress.
		We have been strong in applied science and in technology, but in the past we have relied largely on Europe for basic knowledge.

		It is not surprising that up to 1900 the life sciences were largely concerned with the necessary preliminary stages in the application of the scientific method-preliminary stages which chiefly involve collection, description, classification, and the observation of concurrent and apparently correlated effects.
		It is tempting to forecast that the great advances that science can and must achieve in the next fifty years will be largely contributed to by voluntary mixed teams, somewhat similar to the operations analysis groups of war days, their activities made effective by the use of large, flexible, and highspeed computing machines.
		The essence of science is not to be found in its outward appearance, in its physical manifestations; it is to be found in its inner spirit.

	Walter Grey: American Science Goes to War (July 1948)
		Though science is essentially a cooperative intellectual movement, the science of the nineteenth century and earlier was carried out within the workshop (laboratory) of the individual scientist or inventor.
		Science has become so complex and its technical requirements so great that it can only advance by coordinated research on a national or international scale; capitalism, by its very nature, excludes the latter, but can and does seek a strong nationalistic science.
		The exact mechanism by which the federal agencies direct science within industry and the colleges is plain from the manner in which they spent their 625 million dollars in 1947.

	Inside Science Fiction
		The Road to Science Fiction, as well as the study of Isaac Asimov's work that was published as Isaac Asimov: The Foundations of Science Fiction.
		Editors were putting together books about science fiction and soliciting chapters, science fiction magazines were accepting and even encouraging articles about science fiction, and even general interest magazines and newspapers were becoming interested in the genre.
		Science fiction is the literature of change, and the analysis of change must change as well.

		The idea of using an all natural biodegradable fuel source may seem a bit too science fiction or Hollywood for the average person.
		Studying science also helps develop an understanding of the many applications of science in daily life.

	Address to the Centennial Anniversary AAAS Annual Meeting (1948)
		If we are to maintain the leadership in science that is essential to national strength, we must vigorously press ahead in research.
		All Americans have a solemn obligation to avoid those methods and procedures which are impeding scientific researchwhether adopted mistakenly with good intentions or advocated in the name of security by men with other axes to grind.
		But the social sciences and related fields are at least as important in the present stage of human affairs.

	December 1948 - Popular Science
		We’re not sure how that one ranked with the tykes, though the success of toy cars with tethered remotes in the 1940s and ’50s was undoubtedly a harbinger of RC hobbyist glee to come.
		In 1948 Buick announced that all its high-end Series 70 cars would be equipped with the Dynaflow automatic transmission system.
		S.D. Robins of New York patented one such craft in 1948, two decades before the British Royal Air Force successfully implemented the concept with the AV-8A Harrier jet, known for its ability to hover in midair and take off and land vertically.

		In fact, ever since the Hixon Symposium at the California Institute of Technology in September 1948, cognitive science has been regarded as an interdisciplinary field.
		Most people date the beginnings of cognitive science from this symposium, the title of which was "Cerebral Mechanisms of Behavior." Presenters included John von Neumann from mathematics and Karl Lashley from psychology.
		Today, six major disciplines work together under the banner of cognitive science to explore the workings of the brain/mind: psychology, neurobiology, information science, anthropology, philosophy, and linguistics.
