What would a completely scientifically driven society unhindered by moral or ethical restraints be like?

Are there any books that describe such civilizations?

Building anything requires cooperation, which requires trust, which requires some form of social ethical standards.

>thinking that a scientific mindset excludes automatically any morality
Are you a priest or just a retarded teenager trying to sound smart?

Idiot. Tribal people have ethical standards, rules and morality. They don't build civilizations because:
1. They don't need to: they have no scarcity to fight.
2. They don't have the natural resources to do it.
It's not a coincidence our civilization was born in the only places of this planet full of vegetables fit for agriculture and animals fit for husbandry.

A society can't be "scientifically driven" since science does not drive. It does not have objectives. It does not form opinions. It does not prefer one action above the other. Science is a method, an instrument, a tool.
