. . . . As the rest of scientific change through three centuries has shown, reduction is the most powerful way to correct, deepen, and broader scientific theory. And, by and large, it is the only way to make techno9logy based on it reliable enough to employ. It is still early days for molecular biology as subdiscipline. A half century or so from Watson & Crick’s breakthrough is not exactly the blink of an eye, but it is a short time by the standards of scientific change. Yet molecular biologists would be right to feel vindicated in their commitment to reductionism as a research strategy. Their discoveries have been surprising and have begun to do the work of correcting prior theory and enhancing predictive success in at least some areas of medicine, agriculture, and bioengineering. And nothing in the laboratory has arisen to suggest impediments to the research program of reductionism. - page 7
