The ideas associated with the problems of the development of science, as far as I can see by looking around me, are not of the kind that everyone appreciates.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The process of science is difficult and challenging. It involves always being aware that your ideas might be right or they might be wrong. I think it's that kind of balance that makes science so interesting.
Science is far from the center of the world for most people: even for many with highly sophisticated tastes, interests, and accomplishments.
I'd like to put in a vote for the intrinsic fascination of science.
I felt strongly that since the pursuit of good science was so difficult it was essential that the problem being studied was an important one to justify the effort expanded.
One of the great problems of the world today is undoubtedly this problem of not being able to talk to scientists, because we don't understand science; they can't talk to us because they don't understand anything else, poor dears.
I would like people to appreciate science in the same way they appreciate the arts.
I think the reason people are dealing with science less well now than 50 years ago is that it has become so complicated.
Scientific experiments are expensive, and people are entitled to know about them if they want to. I think it is very difficult to convey ideas.
Science is very cross-generational; you're not just aiming it at twentysomethings, or eightysomethings. Every town's got a really broad selection of people and age groups interested in science.
Science is the best idea humans have ever had. The more people who embrace that idea, the better.
