Science became "the Grand Revelator of Modern Western Culture" through a series of historical accidents. A consequenc3e is that our most trusted way of exploring the world is a "narrow frame"—well suited for some purposes (such as developing science and technology), but poorly for others (notably for understanding "human development", and for developing culture).

An even larger problem, however, is that science constitutes a 'hammer'—a specialized set of tools, which make us favor disciplinary interests, and ignore the needs of people and osociety.
