Sinossi

Truth and Science investigates the possibility of achieving objective truth through scientific methodologies, while acknowledging the challenges posed by biases. The book explores the scientific method's strengths and weaknesses, dissecting cognitive, cultural, and institutional biases that skew research outcomes. It further provides strategies to mitigate these biases, promoting more objective and reliable scientific findings. It's crucial to understand that while complete objectivity may be unattainable, awareness of biases and transparency can improve scientific research. 

 
The book examines the historical development of scientific thought, from early philosophy to empirical evidence. This exploration acknowledges the contributions of key figures and movements that have shaped our understanding of scientific methodology. 

 
The book is structured in four parts, including core concepts, biases, strategies for minimizing bias, and practical implications, supported by case studies and statistical analyses. This approach makes the book valuable for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the foundations of scientific knowledge.

Inside Out

Pat Toulson

Similar to Jenny Worth’s Call the Midwife, this book reveals a different, still hidden medical field, the world of x-rays. This story follows a shy, sixteen year old girl, as she attempts to become a professional radiographer from 1962 into the 1990’s. All the incidents and cases are true, for they are Patricia Toulson’s real-life memories. She is thrust into the harsh disciplinary world of a general hospital, ruled by barbed tongues of nursing Sisters’ and ridiculed and harassed by experienced male staff. She experiences horror and tragedy, sadness and joy but also humour abounds in unexpected places. She encounters child abuse, infertility and teenage terminal illness, countered by the wonders of the healing body and the splendour and radiance of pregnancy.

The Dark Universe -...

Dirk Fallon

For centuries, humanity has gazed at the night sky and wondered what lies beyond. The vastness of the cosmos has always been a source of fascination, mystery, and deep philosophical thought. Even with our most powerful telescopes and advanced scientific theories, there remains a great deal about the universe that we simply do not understand. This lack of understanding is not a reflection of failure, but a sign that the universe is far more complex and expansive than we could have imagined.
Our journey into space began with curiosity. Ancient civilizations looked to the stars for guidance, calendars, and meaning. They built observatories, created myths, and aligned temples with celestial events. While their interpretations were often rooted in religion and myth, the desire to make sense of the universe was no different from the drive that fuels modern science. Today, instead of using stone circles or star charts, we use satellites, telescopes, and particle colliders. But the goal is the same — to uncover the secrets of space.
Despite massive advances in technology, a large portion of the universe remains unexplored and misunderstood. Scientists estimate that everything we can see and detect — all the stars, galaxies, and planets — makes up less than 5% of the total universe. The rest is composed of dark matter and dark energy, things we cannot observe directly but know must exist due to their effects on the visible world. These unknown forces influence the movement of galaxies, the expansion of space, and possibly the fate of the cosmos itself.
