C. P. Snow

C. P. Snow was a British scientist and novelist who famously explored the divide between science and the arts in society. He argued that a lack of understanding and communication between these two fields—what he called the "two cultures"—hindered progress and societal cohesion. Snow believed that scientists and literary thinkers needed to better appreciate each other's perspectives to solve complex global problems. His work highlighted the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and the need for education that fosters both technical and humanistic knowledge.
