What Remains to be Discovered by John Maddox

This review of where science is and where it might be headed is valuable because the writer has had a view of science broad in scope like few other people. He is good at explaining things. His parting thoughts about realism, reductionism and what he considers thoroughly discredited idealism - makes one wonder what is an -ism if not an organizing principle or idea!
