Why
bother?
That science involves real people doing real
work in a real world; that the history of
science is often sanitized and idealized so that it seems
lifeless and cold, and that only geniuses (or nerds) need apply;
that as new answers emerge, new questions then become possible and
therefore the quest is unending; that science usually touches our
lives in other, non-scientific realms as well, and consequenly it
is important to know something about the
scientific enterprise; that even you can understand a
scientific argument and that perhaps after this course science may
be more appealing than before.
