In 1959 C. P. Snow delivered his now-famous Rede Lecture, The Two
Cultures, a reflection on the academy based on the premise that
intellectual life was divided into two cultures: the arts and
humanities on one side and science on the other. Since then, a
third culture, generally termed social science and comprised of
fields such as sociology, political science, economics, psychology,
and anthropology, has emerged. Jerome Kagan s book describes the
assumptions, vocabulary, and contributions of each of these
cultures and argues that the meanings of many of the concepts used
by each culture are unique to it and do not apply to the others
because the source of evidence for the term is special. The text
summarizes the contributions of the social sciences and humanities
to our understanding of human nature and questions the popular
belief that biological processes are the main determinant of
variation in human behavior.
