British Writer.

I would reclaim the term “natural philosophy” as the best description of what I do.

From the ancient world to only a few hundred years ago, the study of nature was called natural philosophy. This was a philosophical approach to investigating the living world, including us, that incorporates science, history of ideas, and philosophy. For me, it offers a solution to the troubling separation of different, but equally important kinds of knowledge about the world.

— MELANIE CHALLENGER

“Our imagination is struck only by what is great; but the lover of natural philosophy should reflect equally on little things.”

— ALEXANDER VON HUMBOLDT
