ESSAY ON SCIENCE AND SOCIETY:
Of Two Minds and One Nature

Rhonda Roland Shearer and Stephen Jay Gould

The interface between science and art is often a deep uncrossable chasm. Shearer and Gould argue that this is not the way it should be or has to be. They plea for interdisciplinary sharing of methods and thought and point to people who have successfully bridged the gap--Marcel Duchamp among them.

The authors are at the Art Science Research Laboratory, 62 Greene Street, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10012-4346. E-mail: sgturbo{at}aol.com. They are coordinating a Harvard University Symposium, "Methods of Understanding in Art and Science: The Case of Duchamp and Poincaré" 5 to 7 November. E-mail: www.marcelduchamp.net
