VALIDITY OF SCIENTIFIC TEMPER AND RATIONALIST MINDSET !
The Inter Academy Panel on Ethics in Science has recently issued a statement emphasising the need to protect rational thinking and scientific temper in the country.
The statement is important on two counts.
Firstly, it is a rare expression of thought on an important issue coming from the panel which represents India’s oldest and the best science academies - the Indian National Science Academy, Indian Academy of Sciences, and National Academy of Sciences.
Secondly, it reflects the collective wisdom of the cream of Indian scientists on the current debate about attacks on rationalists and voices of reason.
