Screams of Reason: Mad Science and Modern Culture
Published by W. W. Norton & Company, 1998
ISBN 10: 039304582X ISBN 13: 9780393045826
Language: English
Hardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition (first printing). A very good copy in a very good dust jacket. Inscribed to former owner with signature from author. In "Screams of Reason," David J. Skal explores our perennial fascination with demented doctors, crazed clinicians, and technology-obsessed fiends. From 19th-century Romantic literature to Dr. Strangelove and Hannibal Lecter, the mad scientist proves himself to be a figure of myriad masks and guises -- a far more interesting archetype than the nerd-run-amok of B-movies would indicate. "Screams of Reason" is an exploration of the prop-laden laboratories of '30s Hollywood, the mad-science mystique that colors the cult of the computer, the pseudo-science folklore of UFO abductions, and the demonization of doctors and medicine in the brave new world of HMOs and managed care.
