Basket case science, basket case society

Abstract

Many people maintain that the government and politicians are fully or mainly responsible for this quandary, as for every other. But the author digs deeper to discover the underlying causes. He argues that the scientific failure happened ‘through’ the politicians, not ‘by’ them.
