Reeves Drops A "Waffle Bomb"?

In 'The Two Cultures', C. P. Snow argues that Western society is split into two distinct cultures: the scientific culture and the literary or intellectual culture. He contends that this division hampers the ability of society to address global problems effectively. Snow criticizes the British educational system for favoring the humanities over scientific education, which he believes has hindered the UK's ability to compete in a scientifically driven world. He also discusses the gap between rich and poor nations and advocates for a more balanced education system that integrates both scientific and literary knowledge. The book sparked significant controversy and discussion upon its publication and remains influential in debates about education and cultural divides.
