there is still some suspicion and hostility to new technologies,” he
said. "Arthur Clarke once said that 98 percent of people can’t tell
the difference between technology and magic.”
Bromley said the main distinction between science and tech
nology, as defined by Theodore von Carman, is that science stud
ies what is, whereas technology studies what never was. Bromley
said that prior to World War II, science and technology were two
completely separate departments and there was almost no rela
tionship between science and politics and little relationship
between technology and politics.
“It is remarkable how separate these three activities were when
they are all essential to vital human reactions,” he said. “With the
development of such things as nuclear weapons, science and tech
nology have been irretrievably merged.”
Bromley said so far there have been seven major technological
evolutions that have changed the face of our world, including
printing, industry, nuclear, green, information biotechnology and
quantum mechanics.
Bromley expressed concern that science and technology did
not rank very high on President George W. Bush’s agenda.
“Although health has been included, I am deeply concerned
that the role played by science and technology has been deeply
downplayed and not given enough thought,” he said.
Bromley said most people do not realize that most of the
breakthroughs from the medical world, such as nuclear magnetic
resonance, are results of breakthroughs in chemistry and physics,
and not the life sciences.
“It is up to the science and technology community to make the
case about why we need this investment and have better articulat
ed cooperation between federal, state and local governments,” he
said. “You would have to be a remarkable pessimist to not believe
that we are only seeing the beginning. There are many more
developments waiting out there which will pale in comparison to
any of our previous discoveries.”
