The Martin Legacy
Scientist's Love for the Arts Lives On
"When we expect U.S. scientists to create miracles of invention and to lead the world in these activities, they may be ill-equipped to do this. There are a couple of ways we may help the situation: educate our scientists with more right-brain courses or use teams of inventors (creators) containing a diversity of thinkers — both right- and left-brainers. Either way, I think it is wrong to continue to minimize courses in the arts which are heavy contributors to our supply of right-brain thinkers. My financial contributions represent a modest effort to balance the scales and create more whole-brain thinkers." - James C. "Jim" MartinMore »
