Why does the Foundation concentrate its
support on basic rather than applied research. Basic research is the very heart

progress, a capital that must be constantly increased as the demands upon it
rise. The goal of basic research is understanding for its own sake.
Understanding of the structure of the atom or the nerve cell, the causes of
earthquakes and droughts, or of man as a behaving creature and of the social
forces that .are created whenever two or more human beings come into contact

same. If the commitment were to a particular result, conflicting evidence might
be overlooked or, with the best will in the world, simply not appreciated.
