Science
£8.27
Science: A Four Thousand Year History rewrites sciences past. Instead of focussing on difficult experiments & abstract theories Patricia Fara shows how science has always belonged to the practical world of war politics & business. Rather than glorifying scientists as idealized heroes she tells true stories about real people
- men (and some women) who needed to earn their living who made mistakes & who trampled down their rivals in their quest for success. Fara sweeps through the centuries from ancient Babylon right up to the latest hi-tech experiments in genetics & particle physics illuminating the financial interests imperial ambitions & publishing enterprises that have made science the powerful global phenomenon that it is today. She also ranges internationally illustrating the importance of scientific projects based around the world from China to the Islamic empire as well as the more familiar tale of science in Europe from Copernicus to Charles Darwin & beyond. Above all this four thousand year history challenges scientific supremacy arguing controversially that science is successful not because it is always right
- but because people have said that it is right.

Science Delusion
£6.89
Freeing the Spirit of Enquiry The science delusion is the belief that science already understands the nature of reality. The fundamental questions are answered leaving only the details to be filled in. In this book (published in the US as Science Set Free) Dr Rupert Sheldrake one of the world's most innovative scientists shows that science is being constricted by assumptions that have hardened into dogmas. The 'scientific worldview' has become a belief system. All reality is material or physical. The world is a machine made up of dead matter. Nature is purposeless. Consciousness is nothing but the physical activity of the brain. Free will is an illusion. God exists only as an idea in human minds imprisoned within our skulls. Sheldrake examines these dogmas scientifically & shows persuasively that science would be better off without them: freer more interesting & more fun. In The God Delusion Richard Dawkins used science to bash God but here Rupert Sheldrake shows that Dawkins' understanding of what science can do is old-fashioned & itself a delusion. ' Rupert Sheldrake does science humanity & the world at large a considerable favour.' The Independent ' Certainly we need to accept the limitations of much current dogma & keep our minds open as we reasonably can. Sheldrake may help us do so through this well-written challenging & always interesting book.' Financial Times ...
