  • "Shorto tells a grand and strange history of the on-going debate between religion and science--seen through the oddly momentous journey of the skull and bones of the great French philosopher Rene Descartes. Shorto shows how this argument first started with Descartes and how his ideas (and bones) have remained central to this theoretical struggle for over 350 years."
