From the Back Cover does the act of choosing mean that science is not an objective discipline but a creation of scientists? These philosophical questions are the genesis for Henri Poincare's 1913 classic treatise The Value of Science. Poincare argues that science is not a matter of intuition and random data but is based on a hierarchy of facts that scientists consider judiciously in the quest for truth, each scientist building on the works of those who came before. Methodically, Poincare examines intuition and logic in mathematics, the measure of time, the notion of space, space and its three dimensions, analysis and physics, astronomy, the history and future of mathematical physics, crises in physics, and much more. Scholarly and rich with detail, The Value of Science was written with the physics student, math student, and philosopher and historian of science in mind.
