科際整合：研究與實踐

Kahn & Prager（1994）在The Scientist雜誌說到：「科學家孤獨地尋求真相」這樣的浪漫想像，是讓「科學促進人類問題解決」難以有效進展的主要障礙（The myth of the solitary scientist in search of truth is a romantic notion whose continued existence serves as a major barrier to progress in bringing the collective weight of the sciences to bear on the problems of humankind. )。這的確是很深厚的領悟，試想今天從事研究或實務的人，從頭到尾地孤軍奮戰，他的進展可能受限。
