Famous quotes containing the words scientists and/or academics:

    “There is not much that even the most socially responsible scientists can do as individuals, or even as a group, about the social consequences of their activities.”
    —Eric J. Hobsbawm (b. 1917)

    “Almost all scholarly research carries practical and political implications. Better that we should spell these out ourselves than leave that task to people with a vested interest in stressing only some of the implications and falsifying others. The idea that academics should remain “above the fray” only gives ideologues license to misuse our work.”
    —Stephanie Coontz (b. 1944)
