Περιγραφή για Stranger Than We Can Imagine: Making Sense of the Twentieth Century John Higgs Weidenfeld & Nicolson 1011

\'An illuminating work of massive insight\' Alan Moore\'A sensational book. Heartily recommended\' Rufus HoundIt is the century about which we know too much, yet understand too little. With disorientating ideas such as relativity, cubism, the id, existentialism, chaos mathematics and postmodernism to contend with, the twentieth century, John Higgs argues, cannot fit easily into a traditional historical narrative. Time, then, for a new perspective. Higgs takes us on a refreshingly eclectic journey through the knotty history of the strangest of centuries. In the company of radical artists, scientists, geniuses and eccentrics, he shows us how the elegant, clockwork universe of the Victorians became increasingly woozy and uncertain; and how in the twentieth century we discovered that our world is not just stranger than we imagine, but \'stranger than we can imagine\'.
