Abstract
- The article reports that the relationship between knowing and doing has as many puzzles for us today as it had for Socrates. Indeed, all of psychology is involved with it in one way or another. It is in this deepest well of ambiguity, the hiatus between knowledge and action that the answer to the question ultimately lies, since it is at the basis of the relationship between science and practice. Because it is easier to agree upon truth than upon value, the possessor of knowledge has considerable power in the process of deciding. It is understandable that authority in knowledge may be confused with authority to establish values and determine actions. This confusion is responsible for the silly notion that science can be substituted for art.
