P. SNOW". Snow, (1905-1980, born in Leicester, Leicestershire, Great Britain) was a British
novelist, physicist and scientific advisor to the British government. Snow is probably best
remembered for two literary works. The first is Strangers and Brothers, an 11-novel series
published between 1940 and 1970 that analyzes bureaucracy and the corrupting influence
of power. The other is The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution (1959), in which
Snow identified a possibly uncrossable gulf between literary and scientific people. He
wrote a sequel in 1964 called Second Look. Snow held several positions in the British
government, including technical director to the Ministry of Labor during World War II
(1940-1944). He was knighted and made Baron Snow in 1957. Lightly toned and creased.
Folded once vertically and twice horizontally and unfolded. Otherwise, fine condition.
