Reductionism in Art and Brain Science: Bridging the Two Cultures
Kandel, Eric R. (Columbia University Medical Center)
The Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist Eric R. Kandel shows how science can inform the way we experience a work of art and seek to understand its meaning. He illustrates how reductionism—distillation of larger scientific or aesthetic concepts into smaller components—has been used by scientists and artists alike to pursue their respective truths.
