ISBN: 0674146514 ISBN-13: 9780674146518 Publisher: Harvard University Press OUR PRICE: $33.66 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: September 1978 Annotation: The late Dr. J. Bronowski was both a distinguished mathematician and a poet, a philosopher of science and a literary critic who wrote a well-known study of William Blake. Dr. Bronowski's very career was founded on the premise of an intimate connection between science and the humanities, disciplines which are still generally thought to be worlds apart. The Common Sense of Science, a book which remains as topical today as it was when it first appeared twenty-five years ago, articulates and develops Bronowski's provocative idea that the sciences and the arts fundamentally share the same imaginative vision. |
