Mary Somerville set out to show that astronomy, physics, chemistry and the rest were not separate subjects but one connected whole, and in doing so helped invent the very idea of science as a unity. This influential survey ranges across the physical world with astonishing command. A cornerstone of scientific writing. See the sciences drawn together by a master synthesizer.
