In \u003cem\u003eScience After Babel \u003c\/em\u003ehe reflects on everything from Newton, Einstein, and Gödel to catastrophe theory, information theory, and the morass that is modern Darwinism. The scientific enterprise is unarguably impressive, but it shows no sign of reaching the empyrean heights it seemed to promise a century ago. \"It resembles Bruegel's Tower of Babel,\" Berlinski says, \"and if it suggests anything at all, it suggests that its original plans have somehow been lost.\" Science endures. Scientism, it would seem, is guttering out. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 298\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.67 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 05, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42738458394687,"sku":"9781637120262","price":37.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/d29aa68a01ace6b864a7daad10109906.webp?v=1765153379","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/science-after-babel-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
