One of our most brilliant social critics - author of the best-selling The Middle Mind - presents a scathing critique of the "delusions" of science alongside a rousing defense of the tradition of Romanticism and the "big" questions. With the rise of religion critics such as Richard Dawkins, and of pseudo-science advocates such as Malcolm Gladwell and Jonah Lehrer, you' re likely to become a subject of ridicule if you wonder "Why is there something instead of nothing?" or "What is our purpose on Earth?"

Replace the word science with art and the word scientist with artist. Every critique within this book applies equally to art. The author would like to pretend as if art is rebellious by its nature speaking truth to power if you will. What’s hilarious about this statement is art is often used as propaganda to control the populace just like science. The book is filled with nothing but sophistry platitudes and logical fallacies. Curtis should stick to writing fiction and leave the criticism to people who actually know what they’re talking about.
