The New physics Newton revised

Shows how scientists in the 19th and 20th centuries replaced Newton's universe - commonsense and knowable - with a universe which is more complicated and unknowable. Science has come to pose a universe which is uncertain and incomprehensible to the average person. The public has confused science with technology and stuck with a Newtonian, commonsense view of the universe which is removed from what scientists know.
