What are leading scientists working on now? What do they think
about the working of the brain, climate change, animal
experimentation, cancer, and mental illness? Is science progressing
or in retreat? Is this century humankind's last?
These are just some of the compelling questions discussed by twelve
of world's leading scientists and scientific thinkers in this
fascinating book. In engaging and lucid discussion, they clarify
many of the complex scientific challenges and dilemmas facing
science today. They also explain what drives their interest in
science, revealing something of the often-neglected personal side
of science.
