Volume has bent top front corner, pressure marks on the rear cover. Jacket is chipped, rubbed. Now in clear cover. "The title comes from the Auden epigraph: 'When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a drawing room full of dukes.' This unhappy reaction is the product of the barrier, both emotional and intellectual, that our culture has erected between non-scientists and science. In 1960 Martin Green became interested in the now famous debate between C.P. Snow and F.R. Leavis over Snow's book, The Two Cultures. This current book contains his reflections on that debate and his own response to Snow's thesis. Martin Green sets us on the path to a new humanism, and to a definition of the complete man of the twentieth century." $16.50USD
