From Certainty to Uncertainty: The Story of Science and Ideas in the Twentieth Century

Buy
The first year of a new century always appears auspicious. The year 1900 was no exception. Americans welcomed it in with the three Ps: Peace, Prosperity, and Progress. It was the culmination of many outstanding achievements and looked forward, with great confidence, to a century of continued progress. The twentieth century would be an age of knowledge and certainty. Ironically it ended in uncertainty, ambiguity, and doubt. This book is the story of that change and of a major transformation in human thinking. It also argues that, while our new millennium may no longer offer certainty, it does hold a new potential for growth, change, discovery, and creativity in all walks of life.
