The most important things in life are our health and happiness. Yet most of us are neither healthy nor happy.

But few of us realize that a plant actually "sees" where light is emanating from and positions itself to be in optimal alignment with it.

Kandel, whose remarkable scientific career and deep interest in art give him a unique perspective, demonstrates how science can inform the way we experience a work of art and seek to understand its meaning. Kandel illustrates how reductionism - the distillation of larger scientific or aesthetic concepts into smaller, more tractable components - has been used by scientists and artists alike to pursue their respective truths.
