Piggy and Science

Golding: "Piggy understand society less than almost anyone there. He's a scientist. He is naive, short-sighted, and rationalist, like most scientists."

Think about Piggy's death and how much he valued the conch. How might it illustrate this quote?

There are many ethical issues in science facing us today where "naive" or "short-sighted" decisions could have serious consequences. Your thoughts?

In your opinion, have there been time in the past when scientific advancements, inventions, and technology should have been prevented?
