ABSTRACT
A "science" can mean a body of knowledge like the knowledge found in the physical sciences. For instance, "Development of a science of public administration implies the development of a science of man in the area of services administered by the public". Why not just "a science of man"? Our knowledge of the biochemistry of the nervous system is insufficient to provide an adequate physical foundation for an exact science of individual psychology. The prospects of a reliable group psychology are much more remote. There is a vast amount of human experience about all kinds' of administrative and managerial problems. If we will organize it, measure it where we can, and generalize from it, we can build up a body of knowledge about managing which can be taught and learned. The solution of world problems must eventually be built up from all the little bits of experience wherever people are consciously trying to solve problems of relation.
