Abstract
VOL. 22 of "Nauka Polska", an annual publication edited by Prof. S. Michalski and issued by the Mianowski Institute for promoting Science and Letters in Poland, is devoted largely to a series of papers on the influence of science upon human culture and progress. Among several noteworthy contributions is one by Prof. S. Ossowski, who deals with the influence of the personal opinions of the man of science on researches in the domain of the social sciences. He goes on to examine the effect that personal political and social convictions can have upon the course of a research worker's investigations in such subjects as sociology, political economy and anthropology, that is, in sciences directly contributing to progress in social life.
