Synopsis

Why did science as we now call it develop in Western Europe rather than in another culture (some of which have far longer histories of intellectual inquiry)? What made it such a powerful force in the development of technology? In these essays, Professor Seitz, President Emeritus of Rockefeller University, and one of the developers of modern semiconductor physics, investigates the role of science in modern society, its origins, and its development.
