Book Description Paper Back. Condition: New. A lively and personal history of cosmology from the Babylonians to Newton with emphasis upon the tragic and unnecessary estrangement of science and religion. Particularly interesting are the sections on Copernicus and Kepler. Many instructive lessons about the inertia of the human mind and its resistance to innovation as well as about the wild zig-zags science makes towards progress. Koestler is most provocative and at his humane and noble best when considering what science has lost in the aftermath of its divorce from faith: a sobering look at the progressive spiritual desiccation at the center of our modern world.
