Abstract
This is a lecture on the ethics and role of science in promoting rational and objective thinking in society. It was delivered by Prof. Shyamal Sengupta of Kolkata, India. Prof. Sengupta, who passed away recently, has inspired generations of Indian physicists by his rational viewpoints on science and by teaching his students the importance of a scientific outlook. We, some of his former students dedicate this small corner of the archive to his fond memory.
