Examines Cubas approach to scientific research, and distinguishes it from that of capitalist societies

Cuba's future must, by necessity, be a future of scientists, Fidel Castro proclaimed in 1960. As Agustn Lage Dvila shows in this pathbreaking book, Cuba has in fact become a global leader in both the generation and application of scientific knowledgeas demonstrated by its ubiquitous production of socially useful products, from vaccines and medicines, to organic food. Speaking from his position as a noted Cuban immunologist, Dr. Lage shows how Cuba achieved such prominence, positing that the training of its scientists, their scientific practices, and their relationships with the Cuban people are intimately connected to the socialist culture that derived from the Cuban Revolution.

Lage offers clearly written and easily understood answers to questions critical to the very survival of humanity. Why is culture critical to science? What distinguishes Cubas socialist culture from that of capitalist societies? What are the social responsibilities of scientists? How has Cuba made such incredible scientific advances in the face of the brutal and illegal U.S. blockade? How can a country like Cuba earn needed foreign exchange through the sale of its knowledge-intensive products to countries in the Global North while maintaining its ethical, socialist ideals? Lages interrogation of these questions will be of interest to scientists and economic planners around the world, to all those struggling for a better worldand, no doubt, even to those corporations competing with Cuba in global markets.
