Follow The Science: But Be Wary Where It Leads

This book comes from two authors with scientific backgrounds.It recognises the huge advances made through science and theirbeneficial impact on society. However, it also expresses concernthat the essentially tentative nature of scientific conclusions is beingreplaced by a growing tendency to accord to science the last wordon a range of subjects. While the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic of 2020 hasshown some of the uncertainties associated with scientific research,this book demonstrates that these become more apparent in suchfundamental areas as the origin of both life and the universe, as wellas the abiding mystery of mind and consciousness. The authors arguepersuasively that we should recognise the limitations of science aswell as its unquestionable strength.
