Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First-edition third printing of John Horgan's provocative examination of whether science is approaching the limits of fundamental discovery. Drawing upon interviews and conversations with leading scientists and thinkers—including Roger Penrose,…Francis Crick, Richard Dawkins, Freeman Dyson, Stephen Jay Gould, Stephen Hawking, Thomas Kuhn, Karl Popper, Steven Weinberg, E. O. Wilson, Noam Chomsky, Daniel Dennett, and others—Horgan asks whether future science will uncover revolutionary new principles or primarily refine knowledge already established. Horgan argues that the major conceptual revolutions of science—evolution, relativity, quantum mechanics, the Big Bang, and the structure of DNA—may never be equaled, even while technology and applied science continue advancing. Published in 1996, the book generated considerable debate over scientific progress, the limits of knowledge, and what Horgan called "ironic science." Condition: Near Fine/ Near Fine. Hardcover remains square and sound. Interior pages appear clean and unmarked. The original dust jacket is complete and retains the printed $24.00 price on the rear panel. Jacket shows moderate surface rubbing and fine scratching, with light edge wear, minor corner wear, and slight creasing or compression at the spine ends. No tears or major losses are visible in the supplied photographs. A notable work of late-twentieth-century science journalism and philosophy of science. Although this copy is the stated third printing rather than the first printing, it remains an attractive hardcover copy of a widely discussed and controversial book. Carefully packed and shipped in a sturdy box. USPS Media Mail available within the United States; expedited and international shipping quoted at cost. Returns accepted in accordance with AbeBooks' 30-day return policy. SCI 2a.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 320 pages. As staff writer for Scientific American, John Horgan has a window on contempo rary science unsurpassed in all the world. Who else routinely interviews the lik es of Lynn Margulis, Roger Penrose, Francis Crick, Richard Dawkins, Freeman Dyso n, Murray Gell-Mann, Stephen Jay Gould, Stephe…n Hawking, Thomas Kuhn, Chris Lang ton, Karl Popper, Stephen Weinberg, and E.O. Wilson, with the freedom to probe t heir innermost thoughts?In The End Of Science, Horgan displays his genius for ge tting these larger-than-life figures to be simply human, and scientists, he writ es, ?are rarely so human.so at ther mercy of their fears and desires, as whe n they are confronting the limits of knowledge.?This is the secret fear that H organ pursues throughout this remarkable book: Have the big questions all been a nswered? Has all the knowledge worth pursuing become known? Will there be a fina l ?theory of everything? that signals the end? Is the age of great discovere rs behind us? Is science today reduced to mere puzzle solving and adding detains to existing theories?Horgan extracts surprisingly candid answers to there and o ther delicate questions as he discusses God, Star Trek, superstrings, quarks, pl ectics, consciousness, Neural Darwinism, Marx's view of progress, Kuhn's view of revolutions, cellular automata, robots, and the Omega Point, with Fred Hoyle, N oam Chomsky, John Wheeler, Clifford Geertz, and dozens of other eminent scholars . The resulting narrative will both infuriate and delight as it mindles Horgan's smart, contrarian argument for ?endism? with a witty, thoughtful, even prof ound overview of the entire scientific enterprise.Scientists have always set the mselves apart from other scholars in the belief that they do not construct the t.
