Science and National Security

Abstract

We are sometimes inclined to think that the phenomenon of science being of service to the nation is a new development of recent years-say since 1940. However, science has always been a national asset and has always been in the nation's service. Science and technology have been among the decisive influences that have improved the lot of the common people and thus made this nation fine and strong.
