PLEASE NOTE: This is a summary and analysis of the book and not the original book.
Figuring explores the complexities of love and the human search for truth and meaning through the interconnected lives of several historical figures across four centuries—from astronomers and poets to ecologists, and feminists.
What does this ZIP Reads Summary Include?
About the Original Book:
From Kepler in the sixteenth century to Carson in the twentieth, Popova's narrative attempts to seamlessly weave together the personal lives of a cast of characters who would indelibly change society with their work. The overall journey is one from the beginnings of the Enlightenment to spiritual transcendentalism and feminism in the nineteenth century, finally leading to the environmentalist movement of the twentieth.
