Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 320 pages. As staff writer for Scientific American, John Horgan has a window on contempo rary science unsurpassed in all the world. Who else routinely interviews the lik es of Lynn Margulis, Roger Penrose, Francis Crick, Richard Dawkins, Freeman Dyso n, Murray Gell-Mann, Stephen Jay Gould, Stephen…Hawking, Thomas Kuhn, Chris Lang ton, Karl Popper, Stephen Weinberg, and E.O.
