“A scientist's life, the author says, is indeed conflictual, formed by battles, defeats, and victories: but the adversary is always and only the unknown, the problem to be solved, the mystery to be clarified. It is never a matter of civil war; even though of different opinions, or of different political leanings, scientists dispute each other, they compete, but they do not battle: they are bound together by a strong alliance, by the common faith "in the validity of Maxwell's or Boltzmann's equations," and by the common acceptance of Darwinism and the molecular structure of DNA.” DifferentWarMatterProblemTogetherPoliticalStrongCommonOpinionMysteryAcceptanceVictoryBattleScientistStructureBoundsDefeatCivil WarDnaEquationsDisputesAdversariesAlliancesValidityDarwinismDifferent OpinionsMaxwell Author:Primo Levi

They will not fall into place at all unless it is done this way.” WayDoneHelpingFallCultureFightingSocialGriefRaceIssuesAcceptanceBattleGenderCuresWithdrawalFall Into Place Author:Dallas Willard
