Viktor E. Frankl Quotes

But Does The Danger Really Lie In The Lack Of Universality? Doesn't It Rather Lurk In The Pretense Of Totality? What Is Dangerous Is The Attempt Of A Man Who Is An Expert, Say, In The Field Of Biology, To Understand And Explain Human Beings Exclusively In Terms Of Biology. The Same Is True Of Psychology And Sociology As Well. At The Moment At Which Totality Is Claimed, Biology Becomes Biologism, Psychology Becomes Psychologism, And Sociology Becomes Sociologism. In Other Words, At That Moment Science Is Turned Into Ideology. What We Have To Deplore, I Would Say, Is Not That Scientists Are Specializing, But That The Specialists Are Generalizing. We Are Familiar With That Type Called Terrible Simplificateurs. Now We Become Acquainted With A Type I Would Like To Call Terrible Generalisateurs. I Mean Those Who Cannot Resist The Temptation To Make Overgeneralized Statements On The Grounds Of Limited Findings.
