We are now in an age of booming science and technology where their influence pervades almost every area of our lives. How do we make sense of it all? Our implicit perspective of the ongoing high-paced acceleration of scientific and technological development has a place in cautioning their subtle increasing demands and control placed over our daily routine, health and wellbeing. Research is also increasingly garnering the attention of academics and the public. With an unprecedented surge in the amount of studies being carried out round the clock in post-secondary institutions, a question arises as to whether such trend mirrors our overutilization of research and its resources. Perhaps, it is about time to step back and subjectively weigh both the benefits and costs of the current trend of our growing reliance on such unprecedented sophistication and advancement.
