Scientific advances have significantly changed the world. However, science is sometimes wrong - sometimes catastrophically so. Understanding the validity of scientific conclusions and assessing their credibility is important for personal choices, public debate, and the development of public policy and laws. What are "scientific facts" based on? How much can we trust them? What is science and what is not? In this book, the author seeks a working definition of science and its properties from the perspective of a practicing scientist, bringing together the achievements of philosophy, psychology, history, sociology, and anthropology into a coherent system.
