  • Abstract
    Social advantages and disadvantages of the engineering-scientific approach to civilization are discussed in this article, which includes full text of an address delivered at a meeting American Association for the Advancement of Science held in Boston, Mass., December 8, 1933. The engineer is urged to apply the precision of his thinking and his honesty in facing facts to the more complex situations that concern living organisms and our social life.
