Abstract
Patrick Blackett's role as a military consultant to India was described in Part One of this article. But Blackett was and is best known in India as an intervenor in scientific affairs and as an adviser to the research system. Here, Part Two shows how he came to understand the political economy of science, specifically the political limits of the influence of the scientific community and the way that very scarce economic resources were (or were not) mobilized within it.
