About This Item
Raleigh, NC, U.S.A.: Pentland Press, Incorporated, 1998. Book. As New. Cloth. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First edition. Cloth binding, 303 pp. "I read this book with great delight, admiration, and a deep sympathy. It gives a true and up-to-date scientific history of the world from elementary particles to human consciousness and culture. It brings into common perspective such diverse areas as self-organizing systems, cell biology, primate studies, brain research, comparative history of religions, current critical psychoanalytic theory and philosophy-more precisely epistemology. This may seem like too much for one book, but the author succeeds brilliantly to convince us that-while looking at the world-we can indeed understand this great story.... Thus the book may be seen as an elaboration of Einstein's famous words: 'The true miracle of this world is that we can understand it,' and Eberhardt even shows us why we can do so." -- Gustav Obermair . New in new dustjacket, protected with a mylar cover..
