title: Science policy and science policy research.
abstract: This assessment of the value of science policy research in the making of policies is based on a lecture given at a meeting of the Sociology of Science Study Group of the British Sociological Association last March. The thoughts it contains are of course those of Dr Blume himself, and not of the Department of Education and Science or the Council for Scientific Policy.
