“The one who rides the tiger can never get off’ is an aphorism that expresses society’s dependence on science. Automobiles improve transportation and create pollution, medical advantages prolong life and create over- population, pesticides bring cheaper food and create soil problems. Each advance brings on the need for more science to solve the new problems. Society, which likes to live well, is addicted to the products of science, and fortunately a peculiar set of humans are addicted to solving the problems. I am one of those typical addicts who finds the obstacle course fascinating and the endlessness of the quest utopia."
