Description:This book will take you on a tour of what I consider to be the most interesting of all human endeavors: science. Now, of course, I am well aware that many people (perhaps even you) do not think science is interesting. Nevertheless, I do believe that most people’s dislike of science comes from a bad curriculum and/or bad teachers, not the subject itself. Hopefully, as you go through this book, you will see why I find science so incredibly interesting, and if nothing else, you will at least develop an appreciation for this fascinating field of study. So what is science, anyway? Well, the word “science” comes from the Latin word “scientia” (sye en’ tee uh), which means “to have knowledge.” It can be generally defined as follows: Science – An endeavor dedicated to the accumulation and classification of observable facts in order to formulate general laws about the natural world. That’s a nice definition, but what does it mean? It means that the purpose of science is to develop general laws that explain how the world around us works and why things happen the way they do. How do we accomplish such a feat? That’s where the “accumulation and classification of observable facts” comes in. The practice of science involves experimentation and observation. Scientists observe the world around them and collect facts. They also design experiments that alter the circumstances they are observing, which in turn leads to the collection of more facts. These facts might eventually allow scientists to learn enough about the world around them so they can develop ideas that help us understand how the natural world works. As is the case with any other field, the only way to truly understand where we are in science today is to look at what happened in the past. The history of science can teach us many lessons about how science should and should not be practiced. It can also help us understand the direction in which science is heading today. In the end, then, no one should undertake a serious study of science without first taking a look at its history. This book will provide you with a brief history of human scientific inquiry. If you do not like history, please stick with this book. You will start to sink your teeth into science in the 2nd series of this book. Without a historical perspective, however, you will not fully appreciate what science is. in this series, I named "Ebers Papyrus" I will take you to ancient Egyptian science and great endeavors.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
