Wonder as a bridge between science and art

Two things fill the mind with ever new
and increasing admiration and reverence, the more often
and longer the mind engages with them:
the starry sky above me and the moral law within me.

– Immanuel Kant

In Van Melkweg tot moraal, Ann Dooms and Katleen Gabriels take you on a journey of discovery through both their passions: science and ethics. The starting point is their shared wonder about man's place in the universe. Along the way, the authors not only gaze up in awe at the stars, but also have an eye for social issues. For instance, they pay attention to women scientists who have been unjustly snowed under in history."
