Overview

In this groundbreaking new book, American biologist Edward O. Wilson, considered to be one of the greatest living scientists, argues for the fundamental unity of all knowledge and the need to search for concilience - the proof that everything in our world is organized in terms of a small number of natural laws that comprises all learning. Following the tenets of the Age of Enlightenment, he draws on the physical sciences, biology, anthropology, religion, philosophy and the arts to show why the goals of the original Enlightenment are surging back to life in a book that is sure to be debated and discussed at length.
