Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the causes behind the decline of science in England, arguing that a lack of incentives drives away interest in scientific fields. The author, a scientist who has faced disapproval from his colleagues, provides a detailed analysis of several scientific institutions and offers suggestions for how science can be revived in England. The author compares England's situation to other countries in Europe that provide more encouragement and financial support for scientific pursuits. The book provides examples of the negative consequences of England's scientific decline, such as expensive and ineffective government projects and a lack of awareness of scientific practices in high-society. The author concludes that, unless England makes strides to encourage scientific growth, the country will continue to fall behind other nations.
