Britský vedec poľsko-židovského pôvodu, ktorého práca spájala matematiku a biológiu, skúmal cestu ľudstva vedeckým poznaním. Jeho kľúčovým dielom je vplyvný televízny seriál, ktorý sa zaoberá históriou ľudského pokroku prostredníctvom vedy a inovácií. Prostredníctvom starostlivého bádania a schopnosti prepojiť rôzne odbory poukázal na zásadnú úlohu predstavivosti a symbolického jazyka pri rozvoji vedeckého myslenia. Jeho vhľad do ľudskej prirodzenosti a intelektuálnych produktov je dodnes inšpiratívny.
Originally developed as a television series, this work by an historian, inventor, mathematician and leader in the modern movement of scientific humanism traces the growth of science through the great monuments of human invention
William Blake was an engraver, painter, and visionary mystic as well as one of the most revolutionary of the Romantic poets. His writing attracted the astonished admiration of authors as diverse as Wordsworth, Ruskin, W.B. Yeats, and beat poet Allen Ginsberg. He is one of England's most original artists whose works aim to liberate imaginative energies and subvert 'the mind-forged manacles' of restriction. This volume contains many of his writings, including: 'Songs of Innocence', 'Songs of Experience', 'The Marriage of Heaven and Hell', and a generous selection from the Prophetic Books including 'Milton' and 'Jerusalem'.
Jacob Bronowski educated a vast audience through his television series on scientific concepts and his highly regarded books. This volume deepens that exploration, culminating in an essay titled "The Fulfillment of Man."

Selected by Piero E. Ariotti in collaboration with Rita Bronowski
Jacob Bronowski was, with Kenneth Clarke, the greatest popularizer of serious ideas in Britain between the mid 1950s and the early 1970s. He isolates three creative ideas that have been central to science: the idea of order, the idea of causes and the idea of chance.
From Leonardo to Hegel
Science and Human Values was originally a lecture by Jacob Bronowski at MIT in 1953.
