Items related to Science (The Art of Living)
If science enframes our lives, how should we relate to it? Steve Fuller's lively and provocative book explores what it might mean to live 'scientifically'. Can science give a sense of completeness to one's life? Can it account for the entirety of what it is to be human? And does science add value to anything one does in life? In answering these questions, Fuller argues that science is undergoing its own version of secularization. It is not that people are coming to lose their faith in science per se but rather they are losing the compulsion to conform to a specific orthodoxy that is upheld by a specially anointed class of 'science priests'. We are, in a sense, all scientists now, says Fuller. Taking science into our own hands, we have become emboldened to affirm ideas and claims that conform to our own or our community's experiences even if they go against the authorized experience of the laboratory.
