Welcome to The Rise of the West, a website dedicated to J. Needham's
Grand Question:
|
|
Why was modern science invented in Western Europe,
and not in India, or China?
|
This site is devoted to exploring the causes of scientific progress and, more generally,
the falls and rises of civilizations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This site displays a summary of
my economic and political theory
about the European scientific miracle. Available
as well are summaries of
other theories
about the Western originality and the causal factors
of the advance of science.
French-speaking websurfers are invited on what
what will hopefully soon become a
French mirror site.
