"Science and the Modern World" by Alfred North Whitehead, originally published in 1925 redefines the concept of modern science.


This book takes readers through the history of modern science and shows how cultural history has affected science over time in Romanticism, Quantum Theory, religion, and movements for social progress. 


Whitehead invites his audience to understand and read with celebration about the contemporary, historical, and cultural context of scientific discovery.
