This paper is for Science and Technology in Western Culture course (undergrad). Topic: Do you think that we now have science systems that are somewhat similar to large, complex technological systems? The transition to a higher reliance on technological systems represented a significant change in the development and use of technology and its relationships with society, including institutions within society. The practice of science shows at least some of the elements that characterize large-scale, interconnected (complex) systems. Given what you have learned about technological systems, explain how the practice of science might be legitimately called a system; similar to large, complex technological systems. In order to answer this question, you must identify the characteristics of these kinds of technological systems (you must refer to points covered by Hughes in Chapter 4, see reference below), along with their significance. You are expected to use examples from a range of technologies/technological systems and science/science systems to illustrate your points. This paper should be about how scientists and organizations associated with science function. You must discuss cover social, political and organizational factors, and you also should consider a variety of sciences, including at least one natural science (physics, astronomy, biology, etc.). Medicine and computer science are not sufficient. Your paper should not be about any of the following: Natural systems that scientists study and how these systems are complex or are similar to technological systems Relationships between science and technology The use of science in technology or the use of technology in science Respond to the question in a 6-8 page paper, double spaced and in times new roman font. Your bibliography does not have to be annotated. Hughes, T. P. (2004). Human-Built World. Chicago: University of Chicago
