ISBN10: 0231111347, ISBN13: 9780231111348, [publisher: New York : Columbia University Press] Hardcover Serendipities is a careful unraveling of the fabulous and the false, a brilliant exposition of how unanticipated truths often spring from false ideas.

ISBN10: 0231111347, ISBN13: 9780231111348, [publisher: Columbia University Press] Hardcover In a careful unraveling of the fabulous and the false, Eco shows us how serendipities----unanticipated truths----often spring from mistaken ideas. Eco uncovers layers of mistakes that have shaped human history, such as Columbus's assumption that the world was much smaller than it is, leading him to seek out a quick route to the East via the West and thus fortuitously "discovering" America.
