This book is designed to explore key questions surrounding faith, philosophy, science, culture and social progress by celebrating the life and thought of cultural leaders from Rugby School (estd. 1567).

In this collection of essays, contributors explore the most important values that guide and challenge us today, by reflecting on the achievements of these cultural heavyweights.
