Abstract
The author identifies societal needs that the engineer can help fulfil, and things that the engineer must do to accomplish this. He examines anti-engineering biases experienced by Galileo, the Challenger engineers, in the health effects of EMF fields, and in the economics of engineering-based activities. He proposes a number of corrective actions.<>
