About this product
Product Information
Propelled to fame by his "Two Cultures" lecture, scientist-turned-novelist C. P. Snow (1905-1980) here tells a story of hatred and ambition at the top of British science, exposing how vital decisions were ultimately determined by politics. Today scientists and politicians are more contentious, but Snow's dramatic narrative remains the best guide.

Reviews
Reading these lively, erudite, witty, deeply informed lectures is to come away awestruck at the intellectual authority and the unique life experience as scientist, civil servant, academic and Cabinet minister, which made them possible. Snow 's invaluable experiences in the corridors of power (a phrase he actually coined in a novel and which became so widespread that when he chose it as the title of another, he said he was surely entitled to self-plagiarize) inform every page. It is his novelist's knack for skilled narrative and illumination of character and incident that bring them to sparkling life, for all their undoubtedly weighty subject matter.
