The Sleepwalkers: A History of Man's Changing Vision of the Universe - Penguin Modern Classics
Arthur Koestler
Dissects the sterile distinction between 'sciences' and 'humanities' to bring to life the whole history of cosmology from the Babylonians to Newton. The author shows how the tragic split between science and religion arose and how the modern world-view replaced the medieval world-view in the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century.
