Philosophy of Science - Bolinda Beginner Guides (Unabridged‪)‬

The world may not end in 2012, but maybe it’s got you thinking …

The world hasn’t met with destruction on any of the long list of predicted doomsday dates, but the possibility may have got you thinking: has science created more problems than it has solved? What is the point of science at all?

Geoffrey Gorham considers these questions and explores the social and ethical implications of science by linking them to issues facing scientists today: human extinction, extraterrestrial intelligence, space colonisation, and more.
