About Science
Description:
This is a book about science. Nobody will learn any science by reading it but they will discover something about science and its place in modern society.\nThe study of natural sciences at school level is largely confined to acquiring basic facts and research techniques. This book will help students pursuing their interest in science to make the leap to the more critical, questioning, imaginative approach that is demanded at higher levels.\nWith a combination of criticism and inspiration, wit and example, Batty Barnes conveys fresh and stimulating insights into scientific thought and knowledge. He introduces the reader to new models, images and methods which will enable him or her to appreciate the complex interplay between invention and ideology, authority and institutions, that shapes modern science.
