Mind and Intelligence,
By
This review is from: Science and Civilisation in China. Volume 1: Introductory Orientations (Hardcover)
Almost impossible to comprehend the supreme genius and the mind of Joseph Needham. His concepts of biochemistry were far far ahead of his time: cellular organization. integrative levels, and other vast concepts. To learn Chinese in middle age, study it exhaustively and publish the definitive history of Chinese science. Think of it! His biology rules today. His philosophy and mysticism likewise. History is not yet over.....maybe, but mind survives. Donald Macdonald
