Review:
?A serious attempt to enable the layman to understand the cultural significance of what has been going on in science' so that as an individual he may direct his life as intelligently as possible, and as a member of a democracy he may control the new social forces as effectively as possible. The primary purpose of the book is educational, as might be expected of an educator who has come to feel that this understanding is the most important educational problem of our day.?-U.S. Quarterly Book Review
