A product of the intellectual elite, but always nourished by the many fruits of its applications, science appears today to be a perfect system, whose laws and discoveries guide all human activities. Yet the foundations of its authority remain an open question, entailing disquieting aspects that are also to be identified in modern science. Furthermore it is seen to be exerting an increasing power over mankind. Readers are invited to follow an itinerary through the history of science, a voyage which, in the end, enables them to catch a glimpse of two divergent futures: One in which science accelerates the downfall of Homo sapiens, and another in which it helps our species to engage in a new and positive adventure, whose outcome nobody can know. 606 $aPhysics 606 $aPopular works 606 $aHistory 606 $aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000 606 $aPopular Science, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q00007 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aPopular works. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics. 615 24$aPopular Science, general. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 676 $a500 676 $a509 676 $a530 676 $a530.01 700 $aRonchi$b Claudio$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0791364 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300369603321 996 $aThe Tree of Knowledge$92494793 997 $aUNINA
