Ciência teórica, Progresso tecnológico, Ciência aplicada

Resumo

Embora seja incontestável que existe uma relação íntima entre a ciência teórica e o progresso tecnológico, a relação é persistentemente deturpada. O que é especialmente mal compreendido é quão indireta é a aplicação em tecnologia e engenharia de leis científicas. Isso não é diminuir a importância da ciência básica, mas situá-la corretamente. Permite-nos também identificar o sentido em que a tecnologia é uma aplicação da ciência, e explicar como ela participa plenamente de sua racionalidade.
