| Publisher Description: This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. This lucid and accessible study of Michael Polanyi (1891-1976), the scientist of world repute who challenged the modern scientific view of truth, introduces Polanyi's trailblazing work and main ideas and demonstrates their continued value and meaning for today's world. Scott highlights the place of the creative imagination in science and shows the deadly effects of a mistaken understanding of science on our modern civilization. |
