Synopsis

Science as a Questioning Process is a general, philosophy of science book aimed at a wide audience interested in science, philosophy, and social science. The book views science as a questioning process. From this novel perspective, the author then evaluates theories in terms of a trade-off between empirical questions resolved and theoretical questions left unresolved. He discusses questions of perennial intellectual and public concern about what science tells us and how reliable it is.
