Beskrivelse

Omtale

This book examines the identity of the 'man of science' in Victorian times as it was shaped by Thomas Huxley, the leading naturalist and popularizer of Darwinian theory. Breaking with traditional biographies, White treats Huxley as exemplary of the British 'man of science' and reflects on the historical significance of scientific authority.
