Social or Solitary

Not all scientific jobs are solitary careers. Many careers that study science are social such as doctors working at a hospital doctors can refer to each other depending on what branch of medicine they learned. In a sense even James Hutton had a social endeavor/job his friends were members of the Scottish Enlightenment which were a group of scholars that would bear knowledge to each other. James Hutton’s closest friend was Joseph Black a chemist that helped Hutton with geology by sharing ideas. That proves that science is not a solitary career but a social one that one branch of science can help another by bringing what they know to the context of that study
