520    This anthology brings together a generous selection of 
       scientific and literary material to explore the exchanges 
       and interactions between them. It shows how scientists and
       creative writers alike fed from a common imagination in 
       their language, style, metaphors and imagery. It includes 
       writing by Michael Faraday, Thomas Carlyle, Thomas Hardy, 
       Charles Babbage, Charles Darwin, Louis Pasteur, Edgar 
       Allan Poe, Mark Twain and many others. - ;'It has been 
       said by its opponents that science divorces itself from 
       literature; but the statement, like so many others, arises
       from lack of knowledge.' John Ty.
