President's lecture: the need for scientific communication with the public.
Author(s) : ROWLAND F. S.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The article deals with science from a philosophical point of view and seeks to define a limit between myths, due to bad information, bad intentions, or only ignorance, and scientific truth, as it develops slowly using the trial and error methods we know. This search for the truth is based on examples, which are almost all selected from the current topic of ozone depletion and greenhouse effect.
