Abstract

Each kind of scientific activity needs engaging in some system of values. When the scientist constructs a new theory he must be aware, that at its base lies determined a concept of axiology. In my article I try to answer the question: should the truth be significant value for scientists? I think that answer on this question should be not obvious and depend on our philosophical and critical thinking.
