Biotechnology and the University.
Wofsy, Leon
Journal of Higher Education, v57 n5 p477-92 Sep-Oct 1986
Biotechnology is changing the values of the university's bioscience community. Priorities are distorted by entrepreneurial incentives and government pressures that increase the scientist's dependence on industry and the military. The university is seen as inattentive to the social, ethical, and educational challenges. (Author/MLW)
