J.D. Bernal by Brenda Swann
In this volume the different facets of J.D. Bernal's life and work are recounted and assessed. He was a crystallographer, persistent writer on the social implications of science, an early foe of pseudo-scientific racism, a Marxist thinker and a campaigner for peace and civil rights.
Brenda Swann and Francis Aprahamian worked at different periods with J.D. Bernal at Birkbeck College, London, on the research for several of his most important works, including The Social Function of Science, Science in History, A Prospect of Peace and The Extension of Man.
