Science Incarnate: Historical Embodiments of Natural Knowledge Hardcover - 1998 - 1st Edition
by Christopher Lawrence (Editor); Steven Shapin (Editor)
Does truth have anything to do with the belly? What difference does it make to the pursuit of knowledge whether Einstein rode a bicycle, Russell was randy, or Darwin was flatulent? Focusing on the 17th century to the present, SCIENCE INCARNATE explores how intellectuals sought to establish the value and authority of their ideas through public displays of their private ways of life. 54 photos.
First line
A STORY IS TOLD-and much repeated-about Sir Isaac Newton when he was living in London toward the end of his life:
