Beschreibung

"Reflections on the Decline of Science in England, and on Some of Its Causes" by Charles Babbage is a sharp criticism of the Royal Society written by the inventor of the computer. This is very much a period piece, and such has lots of detail regarding the time it was written. However, despite its age, this book has managed to remain surprisingly relevant in a world where many people question everything science comes up with.
