Most of the essays examine the nature of structure affirmatively: how it comes about, its incentives and objectives, its celebration of perfection. He is interested in how artists grope for structure to shape powerful, enlightening images, and how a scientist’s search for truth is a search for structure.184pp. Index. Bibliography. Paperback.
