Veronika Decides to Die

In this world, some of us are sad, some are mad.
Some want to hide away from facts.
But, till the end, we shall find
miracle is life,
when nothing is not in our hands.

Philosophy of Science
Induction to deduction,
theories are never proven.
when scientists got only evidence.
Probability and frequency,
both are reflection of god’s dices,
embracing nature is uncertainty.

Induction to deduction,
theories are never proven.
when scientists got only evidence.
Probability and frequency,
both are reflection of god’s dices,
embracing nature is uncertainty.
Newton or Einstein
ideas evolve and revolve,
who can tell changes are reasonable or not?
Christians against Darwinians,
a century of disagreement,
will someday they find a balance?
When science is to answer questions,
philosophy is to question
how the answers are given.
********************************************
I took a course on the philosophy of science during undergraduate. Since then, I have been enthralled by the subject.
"The principle task of philosophy of science is to analyse the methods of enquiry used in various science."...quoted from p.12
I think both the philosophy and the history of science are of paramount importance to the study and practice of science. It is pity that many scientists neglect them nowadays.
This book may not be the best one, but surely it is a good introductory of the subject and a good revision for me.

The Pilgrimage. A Contemporary Quest for Ancient Wisdom
I love Coelho's <Alchemist> and <Zahir>. But this book is a bit "too much" for me.
The book talks about Coelho's search for Spirituality when he did his prilimage in Spain. It contains many descriptions on mystic rites, which are not always agreeable to me.

I brought it from New Zealand, at the Thermal Wonderland.
I love volcanoes, I love geology!

Indian Philosophy
Indian philosophy has a development history of over 5,000 years. It is really very difficult to present the topic in a "Very Short Introduction". The topics covered in the book appears to be very much simplified.
Nevertheless, this book opens a door for me.
