From Certainty to Uncertainty: The Story of Science and Ideas in the Twentieth Century by F David Peat

Examines the basic philosophic difference between the certainty that characterized the thinking of humankind through the 19th century and contrasts it with the startling fall of certainty in the 20th. This book traces the rise and fall of the deterministic universe and shows the influences that the disparate disciplines have on one another.
