The Discipline of Curiosity, edited by J. Groen, E. Smit and J. Eijsvoogel. Elsevier, Amsterdam 1990, 156 pp. An interesting collection of interviews with fifteen opinion leaders from worlds of international politics, business, science and communication. The consensus is that scientific information is essential, and not only for scientists. Recognition of the crucial importance of the scientific enterprise leads to an awareness that its discoveries and advances must be communicated. The scientist is in the position of relaying information to politicians, entrepreneurs and the general public.
