The Science of Life: Andrew Huxley, Richard Keynes and Horace
Barlow is part of the series Creative Lives and Works. It is a
collection of interviews conducted by one of England's leading
social anthropologists and historians, Professor Alan Macfarlane.
Filmed over a period of 40 years, the three conversations in this
volume are part of a larger set of interviews that cut across
various disciplines-from the social sciences, the sciences, to the
performing and visual arts. The current volume on two of England's
foremost physiologists and a vision scientist is yet another
addition to the series of several such books. These Cambridge men
of science, Sir Andrew Huxley, Richard Keynes and Horace Barlow,
apart from shaping certain very fundamental and critical elements
in the disciplines of Physiology and Neuroscience also belong to
illustrious lineages. Sir Andrew Huxley, for instance is a direct
descendant of T.H. Huxley, while Richard Keynes and Horace Barlow
are both the great grandsons of Charles Darwin. Their conversations
greatly expand our understanding of physiology and neuroscience.
The book will be of very great value not just to those interested
in Physiology, Medicine and Neuroscience. The interviews also take
us into a fascinating period of Cambridge Science, dominated by
certain key families of distinguished thinkers. Print edition not
for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh,
Pakistan or Bhutan).
