There is good science and there is bad science. Similarly, there is good governance and poor governance.

This book addresses the issue of how good science can contribute to the good governance of a country, and how this makes the stark difference between national success and failure.

Providing good science is the story of the Scientific Service in Singapore. It is a scientific service that is committed to use its full range of scientific expertise to serve the people of Singapore in advancing and resolving all science-related issues of health, safety, and justice.

The book traces the long and interesting history of scientific service in Singapore from 1885 to the present, including the many challenges and successes and the dramatic evolution of the service over the years.

Finally, it addresses the question of how this vital service can develop in the future.
