The Age of Wonder
How the Romantic Generation Discovered the Beauty and Terror of Science
Richard Holmes
"The Age of Wonder" explores the earliest ideas of deep time and space, and the explorers of "dynamic science": an infinite, mysterious Nature waiting to be discovered. Three lives dominate the book: William Herschel, his sister Caroline, and Humphry Davy.
