add to cart   close window

The article throws light on the book "Science at the Cross Roads." The book is a collection of papers presented by the delegation of Soviet scientists to the Second International Congress of the History of Science and Technology, held in London last summer. It is built around a double theme, is both a plea for rational planning and for a thorough scientific organization of social life, and an advocacy of a socialistic reconstruction of science itself. Furthermore, most of the articles are concerned with showing that science itself is badly in need of redemption and that communism is the new Messiah.
