In The End of Science (Little, Brown, £18.99, ISBN 0 316 64052 2) John
Horgan argues that most of the really big problems in science have already been
solved. Natural selection, relativity and quantum mechanics are not going to be
reinvented, and scientists face a future of either filling in details or
debating untestable hypotheses. Whether you agree or not—and Horgan adds a
postscript to this British edition which rebuts his American critics—the
book is a provocative mental journey.
