An original history of man's greatest adventure: his search to discover the world around him. In the compendious history; Boorstin not only traces man's insatiable need to know; but also the obstacles to discovery and the illusion that knowledge can also put in our way. Covering time; the earth and the seas; nature and society; he gathers and analyzes stories of the man's profound quest to understand his world and the cosmos.
