My paper focuses on several main themes: the social image of science, the effects of technological innovation and the notion of the quality of life. I propose seven dilemmas generated by the analysis of these main themes, and try to clarify i) in what way a new social contract between science and society is urgent; ii) why we need a mature, pluralistic culture of innovation; iii) why we should adopt a multidimensional notion of the quality of life.
