Add to basketCondition: VERY GOOD. First printing. A very accessible and readable book by this an American physicist and biophysicist, professor at the University of Chicago, who was noted for his pioneering work in the 1940s and later in the field of molecular biophysics and biophysics. This book, described as a "fresh look at man confronti…ng his scientific destiny," reflects his shift in the 1960s to philosophy of science, vision and perception, and social trends. It is an optimistic view of man's ability to use science to make a more secure life, to promote a greater prosperity and a mastery of himself and the world. A book worth reading even now, but unfortunately quite hard to find. vii, 174 pp. Very good in a good dust jacket (some light creasing to the outer margins of a few leaves, minor edgewear to the dust jacket a bit of bleeding from the red cloth spine to the interior of the dj ).
