في معظم التخصصات العلمية، يسود فهم بأن الفرضية المثبتة يمكن قبولها بصفتها "حقيقة" علمية، ولكن إلى أن تستطيع نظرية جديدة دحضها وتقديم نموذج جديد. وبهذه الطريقة يتطور العلم ويتسع نطاقه، إذ تحل الأفكار الجديدة محل القديمة. لكن الاستثناء هنا هو علم الرياضيات، حيث إنه بمجرد إثبات صحة المبرهنة (تقديم برهانها)، فإنها تظل صحيحة بشكل دائم، ولا يمكن دحضها. في الواقع، على الرغم من انتماء الرياضيات إلى العلوم بالمعنى الأوسع؛ لاحتوائها على المعرفة المنهجية والمعادلاتية، فإنها تختلف اختلافًا كبيرًا عن العلوم الطبيعية، التي تبحث في الكون المادي. وفي حين تجمع العلوم الطبيعية أدلة تجريبية لابتكار

Tim Koeth peered into the crumpled brown paper bag; inside was a surprisingly heavy black metal cube. He recognized the mysterious object instantly—he had one just like it sitting on his desk at home. It was uranium metal, taken from the nuclear reactor that Nazi scientists had tried—and failed—to build at the end of World War II. This unexpected gift, wrapped in a piece of paper inscribed with a few cryptic but crucial lines, would launch Koeth, a nuclear physicist and professor, and his colleague Miriam Hiebert, a cultural heritage scientist, on an odyssey to trace the tale of these cubes.

Today the Space Race is widely viewed poignantly and fondly as a race to the Moon that culminated with Apollo 11 “winning” the Race for the United States. In fact, it encompassed a much broader range of competition between the Soviet Union and the United States that affected everything from military technology to successfully launching satellites that could land on Mars or orbit other planets in the Solar System.

There is no doubt science is currently suffering from a credibility crisis. This thought-provoking book argues that, ironically, science’s credibility is being undermined by tools created by scientists themselves. Scientific disinformation and damaging conspiracy theories are rife because of the Internet that science created, the scientific demand for empirical evidence and statistical significance leads to data torturing and confirmation bias, and data mining is fuelled by the technological advances in Big Data and the development of ever-increasingly powerful computers.

The coal-mining town of Fushun in China’s Northeast is home to a monstrous open pit. First excavated in the early twentieth century, this pit grew like a widening maw over the ensuing decades, as various Chinese and Japanese states endeavored to unearth Fushun’s purportedly “inexhaustible” carbon resources. Today, the depleted mine that remains is a wondrous and terrifying monument to fantasies of a fossil-fueled future and the technologies mobilized in attempts to turn those developmentalist dreams into reality.

Quella dell’umanità è una storia avventurosa, costellata di snodi fondamentali, piccole e grandi scoperte o invenzioni che hanno cambiato per sempre la nostra civiltà e l’ambiente intorno a noi e ci hanno trasformato da ominidi pelosi ma ingegnosi in esseri umani dotati di humour e gusti raffinati (e chissà se è stato un bene).

Alles passiert irgendwann zum ersten Mal. Oft ist dieses erste Mal eine mutige Idee, manchmal aber auch ein schräger Zufall oder das Ergebnis jahrelanger Forschung. Sicher ist, ohne diesen einen Moment sähe unser Alltag heute völlig anders aus. Wir würden zum Beispiel anders frühstücken, andere Musik hören oder anders verhüten. Wir hätten wahrscheinlich keine Impfstoffe und weniger Urlaubstage, unsere Drucker würden nicht funktionieren, das Essen würde anders schmecken – von all den medizinischen Entwicklungen ganz zu schweigen.

Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed comets were evil portents. In 1705, Edmond Halley liberated humanity from these primordial superstitions, proving that Newtonian mechanics rather than the will of the gods brought comets into our celestial neighborhood. Despite this scientific advance, when Halley's Comet returned in 1910, newspapers gleefully provoked a global hysteria that unfolded with tragic consequences. Richard J. Goodrich examines the 1910 appearance of Halley's Comet and the ensuing frenzy sparked by media manipulation, bogus science, and outright deception.

Everyone has heard of the term "pseudoscience," typically used to describe something that looks like science, but is somehow false, misleading, or unproven. Given the virulence of contemporary disputes over the denial of climate change and anti-vaccination movements—both of which display allegations of "pseudoscience" on all sides—there is a clear need to better understand issues of scientific demarcation. Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction explores the philosophical and historical attempts to address this problem of demarcation.
