Speaker Lectures O n
'Science in Culture'
Opening a store of wit and
knowledge, Dr. Jacob Bronowski"
successfully sold his goods t o
a sizeable audience gathered in
Price
Auditorium
Wednesday
night.
As the initial speaker in
the Forum Lecture Series, Dr.
Bronowski, a Senior Fellow at
the Salk Institute for Biological
Studies, ordered his thoughts

Band and Seminar

around the topic, "The Place
of Science in Culture."Systematically, he focused on three
major points, illustrating and
elabwating them with sidelights from the annals of s c i e n c e .
Endeavoring to convince
the audience that science has
an important place as an intellectual discipline and that the
community
of
science
has
much to teach society, he bade
those who already agreed with
him to "switch off for forty
minutes."

Dr. Bronowski began with
a detailed description of the
scientific method, emphasizing
the cyclical effect of empiricism
and deduction. He a l s o sb-essed
the inevitable failure of all
theories, "It is the fate of all
theories to be true to a point."
The point being, when their
degree of accuracy i s not prec i s e enough to fit new phenomena.
Dr. Bronowski next pu
forth his opinion on why science
has succeeded by using this
scientific method.
Reaching
back into the past, he chose
.'rancis Bacon's propositions
»s the turning point for the
survival of science as we know
it.' Heretofore, scientists had
sought a trick to reverse the
effects erf nature—the alchemists;
Bacon proposed that science
must go nature's way, finding
the laws and taking advantage
of them—"knowledge is power."
iJr,
Bronowski's
final
point attemnted to show s c i ence's implications i'or society.
"Science i s a communal enterprize." It is the reliable contributions of many that result
in scientific theories.

This
cooperative
spirit
and an intense loyalty to true
observaticn and reporting have
made science viable and able
to exist for more that 300 years.
Stating that, "There are no
ends in science which allow
you to juggle with the means,"
Dr. Bronowski postulated that
the most acceptable and convincing arguments are those
based on logical reasoning and
strict adherence to the actual
observed facts.
An insupportable argument,
often damaging in its opposite
effect, is one based on forgery
or irrationality.
Here, Dr.
Bronowski alluded to Hitler's
stomach, where he made his
decisions, and to the highminded forgeries of the Catholic
Church that condemned Galileo
and produced the Hermetic prophesies, predicting the birth of
Christ several centuries after
the fact.
In closing. Dr. Bronowski
admitted that if it turns out
that human imagination doesn't
work in the way he described, he
is wrongl But then, "why did

question-answer period focused
on the potential slavery inherent
in continued technological advancement and the discrimination occasionally practiced by
the scientific community.
To
the former. Dr. Bronowski replied that it is not unnatural for
man to shape his environment
and that slavery comes from
his fellow man's unwillingness
to allow freedom of imagination.
To the latter, "The scientific community doesn't require
everybody to be a saint" nor
does it feel that pseudo-science
should have free rein to influence a gullible public. Scientists feel science should be
understood as it really is by
non-scientists.
