1. Science, Technology, and Society. Emerging Relationships. Papers from 'Science,' 1949-1988.

Author

American Association for the Advancement of Science, Washington, DC., Chalk, Rosemary, Chalk, Rosemary, and American Association for the Advancement of Science, Washington, DC.

Abstract

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) has necessarily played a major role in the debates over choices and responsibilities arising from the advances of science and its applications in a rapidly changing world. The editor of this volume has selected articles, editorials, and letters from the AAAS journal "Science," from 1949-1988, that deal with: (1) scientific freedom and responsibility; (2) the difficult ethical questions that have arisen in the practice of science and its applications; (3) the risks and benefits of new technologies and the making of decisions concerning them; (4) the conflict between the traditional openness of science and the pressures for secrecy arising from concerns over national security by government officials; and (5) other related matters.
