2.
Should he isolate himself in his work?
3.

4.
What should he do-personally-to succeed and to improve the world in which we live?
5.
Can the engineer help solve specific problems facing us now?
6.
Can today’s problems-unemployment, inflation, world unrest, competition from new sources around the world, social unrest, energy limitations, pollution, and others, be met directly by the engineer with any success?
