  • Abstract
    Among all the revolutions in the history of mankind, perhaps none has been so purposive, ruthless, relatively bloodless and largely unnoticeable as that of science. Wresting power from prophets, priests and kings, science has made accessible to all the opportunity to understand, reason, learn, discover and, most importantly, aspire to a better way of life.
