Question:

In the 1959 Rede Lecture, The Two Cultures, C. P. Snow asserts:
A good many times I have been present at gatherings of people who, by the standards of traditional culture, are thought highly educated and who have with considerable gusto been expressing their incredulity at the illiteracy of scientists. Once or twice I have been provoked and have asked the company how many of them could describe the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
The response was cold: it was also negative. Yet I was asking something which is about the equivalent of: Have you read a work of Shakespeare’s?

Do you think that this analogy (between the second law and Shakespeare) is appropriate? Write a paragraph defending your position.
