With the rise of science we moderns believe the world changed irrevocably separating us forever from our primitive premodern ancestors But if we were to let go of this fond conviction Bruno Latour asks what would the world look like? His book an anthropology of science shows us how much of modernity is actually a matter of faith What does it mean to be modern? What difference does the scientific method make? The difference Latour explains is in our careful distinctions between nature & society between human & thing distinctions that our benighted ancestors in their world of alchemy astrology & phrenology never made But alongside this purifying practice that defines modernity there exists another seemingly contrary one the construction of systems that mix politics science technology & nature The ozone debate is such a hybrid in Latour s analysis as are global warming deforestation even the idea of black holes As these hybrids proliferate the prospect of keeping nature & culture in their separate mental chambers becomes overwhelming & rather than try Latour suggests we should rethink our distinctions rethink the definition & constitution of modernity itself His book offers a new explanation of science that finally recognizes the connections between nature & culture & so between our culture & others past & present Nothing short of a reworking of our mental landscape We Have Never Been Modern blurs the boundaries among science the humanities & the social sciences to enhance understanding on all sides A summation of the work of one of the most influential & provocative interpreters of science it aims at saving what is good & valuable in modernity & replacing the rest with a broader fairer & finer sense of possibility ...

' This witty book reveals the humbling vastness of our ignorance about the universe along with charming insights into what we actually do understand' Carlo Rovelli author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics & Reality Is Not What It Seems In our small corner of the universe we know how some matter behaves most of the time & what even less of it looks like & we have some good guesses about where it all came from But we really have no clue what's going on In fact we don't know what about 95 of the universe is made from So what happens when a cartoonist & a physicist walk into this strange mostly unknown universe? Jorge Cham & Daniel Whiteson gleefully explore the biggest unknowns why these things are still mysteries & what a lot of smart people are doing to figure out the answers (or at least ask the right questions) While they're at it they helpfully demystify many complicated things we do know about from quarks & neutrinos to gravitational waves & exploding black holes With equal doses of humour & delight they invite us to see the universe as a vast expanse of mostly uncharted territory that's still ours to explore This is a book for fans of Brian Cox & What If This highly entertaining highly illustrated book is perfect for anyone who's curious about all the great mysteries physicists are going to solve next ...
