Synopsis

Whilst rhetoric is born out of arguments with others, these poems are a manifestation of an argument the author is having with himself. Keith Davies is a professional scientist and his poems derive from the creative struggle between his science and art. Always thought-provoking, the poems run from the heartfelt to the humorous and the political, whilst others are just plain mischievous.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Dr. Keith G. Davies is by profession a nematologist, formerly at Rothamsted Research in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, now as a Visiting Senior Lecturer at the University of Hertfordshire with expertise in Plant Protection & Animal Health, Horticulture, and Microbiology. He has written over 190 scientific publications, including research papers, book chapters and popular articles. He is also interested in the philosophy of science, having written papers on this topic too, with one published in the prestigious science journal Nature, as well as being an accomplished poet. Stemming from his natural curiosity concerning the interrelationship between science and the philosophy of science and also the natural interphase between the so-called 'two cultures' as described by C.P. Snow Art and Science, inspired him to put pen to paper to produce an eclectic anthology of his thoughts and feelings surrounding this broad topic area. The result is 'Up High & Invisible', as yet the only published collection of his inspired and thought-provoking poetry.
