  • $\begingroup$ This seems a little broad--can you be a bit more specific? I gave one answer, but do you want things like Dyson's "Birds and Frogs" or Gower's "Two cultures"? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Kimball, first of all, thanks for your answer, the book you suggested seems very interesting. Then, yes, I've read both those articles and, although they didn't come to my mind when I asked the question, they are surely two very insightful additions to this list. Thanks again. :) $\endgroup$
