Fri. 12:06 pm – Leigh Rich and P. T. Bridgeport examine the books C. P. Snows books on scientific decisions, and their current relevance.  07/09/2021.

In a 1959 lecture, C. P. Snow stated that British universities paid too much attention to the arts and humanities, and too little to science. It created an uproar; most people conceded it was true, but left it unspoken. In 1960, he published a book stating that scientific decisions were based as much on committee politics as science itself, which created another uproar.  How are we doing sixty years on.  Leigh Rich and P. T. Bridgeport examine the books and their current relevance.  Listen to WRUU 107.5 FM in Savannah and globally @ wruu.org.
