More about the book

The book explores the evolution of science from an exclusive pursuit of elite thinkers to a more inclusive process open to all. It highlights the impact of the Scientific Revolution on traditional authority and the subsequent contributions of figures like Bacon, Descartes, and Galileo. By examining how science has been represented on stage, it critiques playwrights who focus on scientists' lives rather than the essence of science itself. Ultimately, it aims to bridge the gap between science and art, making complex scientific concepts accessible to the public.
