In THE END OF SCIENCE, Horgan displays his genius for getting these larger-than-life figures to be human, whilst also encouraging them to confront the very limits of knowledge.   Have the big questions all been answered  Has all the knowledge worth pursuing become known  Will there be a final 'theory of everything' that signals the end   Horgan extracts surprisingly candid answers to these and other delicate questions as he discusses God, Star Trek, superstrings, quarks, consciousness and numerous other topics. In a time where scientific rationality is under fire from every quarter, THE END OF SCIENCE is a witty, thoughtful, profound and entertaining narrative which serves as both a critique of and a homage to modern science.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47901041426590,"sku":"ING-9780349109268","price":40.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780349109268.jpg?v=1782352228","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780349109268","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
