Wilson, Edward Osborne, 1929- Consilience/Philosophy and science/Philosophy

In this book Berry takes on the scientific establishment in its reductionist view of life. For Berry, life as a miracle means that there are some thing that cannot be put under a microscope and studied--nor should they be. Anyone reading The Selfish Gene owes it to themselves to be at least familiar with the arguments Berry makes here. Par fo the course, Berry tweaks the establishment in its funny bone, but also some other, more vulnerable places. ( )
