Published 1959. Had an impact and was reprinted more than
A few times thru the early 1960's. There is a peer discussion among
academics in A Single Man, Isherwood's novel of 1964.
Snow sez he was a scientist by training and a novelist by vocation.
I remember that TRP always wanted to be a writer, despite his math
skills and engineering major (his first major).
Snow observes that in England even the poor could become scientists.
Snow uses the word crystalline a few times in a short lecture.
