(1985), A History of Western Philosophy, Counterpoint, London, Unwin Paper backs, p.481-82: “Unlike religion , it (science) is ethically neutral: it assures men that they can perform wonders, but does not tell them what wonders to perform... The men at the head of the vast organizations which it necessitates can, within limits, turn it this way or that as they please. The power impulse thus has a scope which it never had before. The philosophies that have been inspired by scientific technique are power philosophies, and tend to regard everything nonhuman as mere raw material. Ends are no longer considered; only the skillfulness of the process is valued. This also is a form of madness. It is, in our day, the most dangerous form, and the one against which a sane philosophy should provide an antidote”. Parenthesis added.
