“If a little less time was devoted to the translation of letters by Julius Caesar describing Britain 2000 years ago and a little more time was spent on teaching children how to describe (in simple modern English) the method whereby ethylene was converted into polythene in 1933 in the ICI laboratories at Northwich, and to discussing the enormous social changes which have resulted from this discovery, then I believe that we should be training future leaders in this country to face the world of tomorrow far more effectively than we are at the present time.” IfsWorldShouldYearsBelieveChildrenLittlesCountryFacesScienceI BelieveSocialSimpleLeaderHistoryTeachingModernTomorrowFutureTrainingResearchDiscoveryYears AgoLettersMethodEnormousBritainMore TimeDevotedSocial ChangeTranslationsLaboratoryDescribingDiscussingPresent TimeTeaching ChildrenJuliusFuture LeadersModern English Author:Ronald Sydney Nyholm
