The biologist Edward O. Wilson offers an imaginative and intellectually stimulating romp through many aspects of modern science and society. He's not afraid to clearly express his opinions and let the chips fall where they may. I appreaciate this courage to speak his mind in a time of rampant intellectual relativism and ethical cowardice.
Includes original essays by Einstein, Hawking, Dillard, Updike, Heisenberg, Planck, Russell, Mandelbrot, Neumann, Asimov, Goethe, and many more. Eloquent and inspiring.
