The two cultures

C. P. Snow
The notion that our society is characterised by a split between two cultures - the arts or humanities, and the sciences - has a long history. This 50th anniversary printing features an introduction by Stefan Collini, charting the history, context, implications and afterlife of a debate that still rages today.
