- W2087117290 abstract "A PROMINENT INDUSTRIALIST once spoke of scientific research as being first line of defense of the capitalistic dynamic economy as opposed to a State-planned economy. Science thus itself becomes propaganda. Very often what appears to be an authentic scientific publication is nothing but disguised propaganda. Sometimes this is because one of the sponsors has some commercial, moral, religious, or public welfare interest he wishes to have served by a deflection of scientific findings to sustain his pet thesis. On the other hand, certain journals exist which print many purely synthetic articles written by ghost-writing bureaus to support the advertising propaganda of -new drug preparations or healing devices with artificial clinical tests and synthetic case histories. To a layman these publications are all esoteric, hence probably important. Science tends to be a glittering generality to most laymen, and its good name is therefore widely transferred to endless questionable products and causes. Actually technical articles, booklets, and monographs frequently represent many things other than the altruistic pursuit of science by unbiased workers in laboratories. This is especially true when the distorted results reach the general public in advertising, and in campaigns to make it drink milk, buy certain cigarettes, avoid alcoholic liquor, fight venereal disease, and so on. Scientists cannot be held responsible for these perversions except, like the Curies, insofar as a curiously perverted sense of social responsibility makes them ignore the popular utilization of their discoveries. But scientists also tend to become at home in certain comfortable theories and hypotheses and to fight the new quite as do other human beings. They are slow to accept drastic adverse criticisms even if based on demonstrable facts. They are reluctant to examine and try new and unusual hypotheses. Moreover many of them are suffused with the fallacy that since they are expert on something they are expert on everything." @default.
