**** Forgetting Dorothy Wrinch: Science And The Culture Of Correctness ****
<http://lareviewofbooks.org/article.php?id=1491>
BOer Deng, Los Angeles Review Of Books


> Science is often indicted for the coldness of its absolutism. Its inflexible distinction between right and wrong leaves no room for the more human shades of interpretive grey. Yet we accept that, in science, being right and getting there first constitute the metrics of worthiness.



**** Beethoven And The Quality Of Courage ****

Daniel Barenboim, The New York Review Of Books


> Hence it is metaphysical; but the means of expression is purely and exclusively physical: sound. I believe it is precisely this permanent coexistence of metaphysical message through physical means that is the strength of music. It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words, all we can do is articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself.
