1 I have excluded him because, while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution of moral problems, he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems.

2 Creating a “European identity” that respects the different cultures and traditions which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old Continent is no easy task and demands a strategic choice..

3 The Greeks assumed that the structure of language had some connection whit the process of thought, which took root in Europe long before people realized how diverse languages could be.

4 Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly ,systematic, and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.

5 The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.

6 Thus ,the anthropological concept of “culture”, like the concept of “set ” in mathematics ,is an abstract concept which makes possible/immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.

7 They are the possessions of the autonomous(self-governing)man of traditional theory, and they are essential to practices in which a person is held responsible for his conduct and given credit for his achievements.

8 Until these issues are resolved, a technology of behavior will continue to be rejected, and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.

9 Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place.

10 But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration :”I t will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century”

11 In the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization-with all the far-reaching changes in social patterns that followed-was spread over nearly a century whereas nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so.

12 Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements –themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport.

13 Interest in historical methods has arisen less through external challenge to the validity of history as an intellectual discipline and more from internal quarrels among historians themselves.

14 There is no agreement whether methodology refers to the concepts peculiar to historical work in general or to the research techniques appropriate to the various branches of historical inquiry.

15 It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources, and to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.

16 Odd though it sounds ,cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementary particle physics, and many astrophysicists have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true.

17 Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect , extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.

18 This trend began during the Second World War, when several governments came to the conclusion that the specific demands that a government wants to make of its scientific establishment cannot generally be foreseen in detail.

19 This seems mostly effectively done by supporting a certain amount of research not related to immediate goals but of possible consequence in the future.
