Negative Positive
Title: Dissapointing and contrived
Review: It seems that a lot of the past reviews are duplicated and this has resulted in a star rating that is not representative of the general view.I am very interested in art and science (I am an artist who reads science) and I collect books that explore the meeting point between the two fields. This is by far the worst of the bunch.Shlain consistently miss-represents the facts and draws farcical comparisons that remind me of the kind of thinking that astrologers are prone to. This book goes down with the "bible code" and those interpretations of ancient predictions that only ever get deciphered after the thing that they are prediction happens.I wanted to finish it before writing a review but this would have been a waste of my time."Art & Physics" gives the art-science crossover a bad name and should be taken out of print.
Is the review positive or negative?
