The London Library may be wonderful, but it embodies one side of the old "two cultures": disdain for the technical (quantitative) side of science and technology

The London Library may be wonderful, but it embodies one side of the old "two cultures": disdain for the technical (quantitative) side of science and technology. From Wikipedia (sorry): "Pure and natural sciences, technology, medicine and law are not within the library's purview, although it has some books in all of those fields; books on their histories are normally acquired."
