1. Introduction to 'Because'. Part I: Fundamental science 2. Because we ask
a question. 3. Because we make a hypothesis. 4. Because we wish to make a
collection. 5. Because of 'What happens if?'. 6. Because one thing leads to
another. 7. Because we get criticized. 8. Because we referee other
scientists. 9. Because something unexpected happens. 10. Because sometimes
we have to interrupt a line of research investigation. 11. Because we want
to tackle adventurous research. Part II: The role of technology. 12.
Because of technology push. Part III: The wider research and work
environment. 13. Because we wish to engage in a grand challenge or mission
led research objective. Part IV: The scientist's inner self. 14. Because we
wish to develop our skills for a better future. 15. Because we wish to
reach to an end point. 16. Because we like finding things out 'at the
science bench'. Part V: Communication of science. 17. Why do scientists
confer so much?. 18 Why do scientists submit their research to a journal?.
Part VI: Science and society. 19. Because we can expand the scope of
research with 'Open Science' bringing an improved future for Society 22.
Because a new or improved product is needed via industrial research. 23.
