Humans are often fearful of the day the world will be ruled by machines, but have they not already taken over?

Are art and science separated by an unbridgeable divide? Can they find common ground? In this book, neuroscientist Eric R.

Kandel illustrates how reductionism - the distillation of larger scientific or aesthetic concepts into smaller, more tractable components - has been used by scientists and artists alike to pursue their respective truths.
