In this book a gathering of exceptional thinkers from the sciences and the humanities engage a common theme: In what ways do language, and storytelling in particular, deal with ethics in science, in literature, or in other art forms? Evelyn Fox Keller, Jean-Michel Rabaté, Mieke Bal, and Roald Hoffmann argue against the facile assumption that science and rhetoric, politics and fiction, science and storytelling, or ethics and aesthetics are distinct and autonomous.
