According to Russell science is a very useful branch of knowledge. It can influence human life and human value in a number of ways. It can help in promoting human welfare by increasing good things of life. Disease and scarcity of food are the misfortune of human life.

Science has controlled epidemics by vaccination and lowering the death rate. It has proved very effective in diminishing poverty by giving modern methods of cultivation. 

Science can also promote human well beings by increasing the good things of life spread of education and good attitude of life is one of them. Education and practical knowledge can help young man in becoming more productive and attaining an honourable position and status in the life without the help of wealth or social status. 

Education makes people enlightened and broadminded so that they become tolerant and accommodative in their attitude. Such a healthy attitude of life is essential for establishing a happy and progressive society. Science can promote humanitarian outlook in the people and can teach them to love whole mankind instead of loving sects of nations. Thus, it is only science that can ensure a better future of mankind.
