Consilience

The Unity of Knowledge

Edward Osborne Wilson

"Consilience" by Edward Osborne Wilson is a captivating exploration of the sciences and humanities, in search of a unified theory to bind them together. Wilson draws significant connections between disparate fields of study, from physics to biology, social sciences to the humanities. Through beautiful and clear prose, he uncovers the unique links that chemistry, genetics, and biology have with the arts. This sweeping and eloquent work is a testament to Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning scientific legacy, aligning him alongside the likes of Newton and Feynman.

I agree. Superb from @matthewsyed . As an aside, E. O. Wilson’s book ‘Consilience’ made a big impact on me when I first read it in the late ‘90s.      source
