Hey user here is your ans,,




Science and technology have had a major impact on society,

and their impact is growing. By drastically changing our means of

communication, the way we work, our housing, clothes, and food,

our methods of transportation, and, indeed, even the length and

quality of life itself, science has generated changes in the moral

values and basic philosophies of mankind.

Beginning with the plow, science has changed how we live and

what we believe. By making life easier, science has given man

the chance to pursue societal concerns such as ethics, aesthetics,

education, and justice; to create cultures; and to improve human

conditions. But it has also placed us in the unique position of being

able to destroy ourselves.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the National Aeronautics

and Space Administration (NASA) in 1983, NASA and The College

of William and Mary jointly sponsored a series of public lectures

on the impact of science on society. These lectures were delivered

by British historian James Burke, ABC TV science editor and

reporter Jules Bergman, and scientist and science fiction writer

Dr. Isaac Asimov. These authorities covered the impact of science

on society from the time of man’s first significant scientific invention

to that of expected future scientific advances. The papers are

edited transcripts of these speeches. Since the talks were generally

given extemporaneously, the papers are necessarily informal and

may, therefore, differ in style from the authors’ more formal works.

As the included audience questions illustrate, the topic raises

far-reaching issues and concerns serious aspects of our lives and

future.

Science is the way humans perceive the complex reality of this world and universe and technology is the means to realize it. In short science and technology is  the creation of human mind to make their lives more meaningful and easy.

In this respect science and technology has a far reaching impact on human civilization after civilizations. It not only  helped humans to create an orderly society but also immensely contributed to accumulate age old ANTHROPOGENIC  WISDOM on which the present modern civilization has been built.
