Criminal Minds: The Bittersweet Science

Science… Science… Why do we need science? Life in a meteorite from Mars, laser surgery, cable television, the internet, gene therapy. These are signs of our times, markers of the 21st century we are right now, a kind of scientific and technological revolution. Science and technology, hand in hand, have changed the way we work, communicate, and view the world. There is a drastic change in the lives we are leading today and that we had 10 years ago. Science has changed the face of the world with great advancements being made in every field. But we all know that everything has both pros and cons.

What has science done for you lately? Plenty. If you think science doesn’t matter much to you, think again. Science affects us all, every day of the year, from the moment we wake up, all day long, and through the night. Your digital alarm clock, the weather report, the asphalt you drive on, the bus you ride in, your decision to eat a baked potato instead of fries, your cell phone, the antibiotics that treat your sore throat, the clean water that comes from your faucet, and the light that you turn off at the end of the day have all been brought to you courtesy of science. The modern world would not be modern at all without the understandings and technology enabled by science.

Have you seen the title? It is Criminal Minds: The Bittersweet of Science. I have been talking about science all throughout for this will be tackling by Criminal Minds this coming December 14, 2011. In this episode of police procedural drama Criminal Minds, we are yet to see again the team undergoing an investigation. This time a string of bludgeoning in Philadelphia is led to the city’s boxing scene in search of the killer.

Let’s take a look on Criminal Minds season 7 episode 10: The Bittersweet Science. Science really has it’s boon and bane. But in Criminal Minds, let us see what are its aspects on these boons and banes of science under the care of our police investigating officers.
