The world didn’t end on 10 September 2008 when they switched on the Large Hadron Collider, but the possibility may have got you thinking: was it worth the risk? What is the point of scientific inquiry? Is Science bringing us closer to the absolute truth? Since before scientists were called "scientists", philosophers have explored the meaning of humanity"s efforts to comprehend the natural world.

Beginning with a brief history of the origins of modern science, Geoffery Gorham relates the core philosophical problems about science to controversial issues such as intelligent design, string theory and ADHD. With an engaging light touch, Gorham tackles the big questions about the nature of science, and helps readers grapple with fascinating challenges for the future of mankind, such as extraterrestrial intelligence, space colonization, and the potential for human extinction.ISBN - 9781851686841
