They include, of course, the quality of training...

Criteria 6 and 7 — those relating to utility or relevance — cannot be made entirely distinct from the preceding two, since that science judged best by internal standards has almost invariably turned out in the long run to be the most useful.

Conversely, applied investigations designed to support invention,...
