No. Jacob Bronowsky was both. Check out his BBC series "Ascent of Man" which is basically Carl Sagan for adults.

Maybe he, I didn't. Now I'm a militant Nietzschean working to bring a genetically designed race of supermen into being so we can start the first Eugenic war. Happy ?

The Ascent of Man - both a book and an excellent BBC documentary from the 70s. Bronowsky was a STEM and Humanities guy at the same time, a very rare occurrence. He was like Sagan for adults.

Sagan for teens, Bronowski for adults.
The Demon-haunted world is still a good book.
