Gross, Alan G.

SUMMARY

Alan Gross applies the principles of rhetoric to the interpretation of classical and contemporary scientific texts to show how they persuade both author and audience. This invigorating consideration of the ways in which scientists--from Copernicus to Darwin to Newton to James Watson--establish authority and convince one another and us of the truth they describe may very well lead to a remodeling of our understanding of science and its place in society.Gross, Alan G. is the author of 'Rhetoric of Science' with ISBN 9780674768734 and ISBN 0674768736.
