Here, distinguished science historian Arthur I. Miller delves into
the connections between modern art and modern physics. He takes us
on a wide-ranging study to demonstrate that scientists and artists
have a common aim: a visual interpretation of both the visible and
invisible aspects of nature. Along the way, we encounter the
philosophy of mind and language, cognitive science and
neurophysiology in our search for the origins and meaning of visual
imagery. At a time when the media are overeager to portray science
as a godless, dehumanising exercise undermining the very fabric of
society, this sixth book by Professor Miller shows how scientists
are struggling to understand nature, convince their peers, inform
the public and deal with the reactions to their research. Thus,
Insights of Genuis must interest everyone who cares about science
and its place in our culture.
