Logic of Scientific Discovery (Karl Popper)
The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper explains how science advances through bold hypotheses that can be tested and potentially disproven. Instead of seeking confirmation, scientists propose ideas that risk being wrong. When evidence contradicts a hypothesis, it is rejected or revised, helping us get closer to the truth. This process of rigorous testing and falsification sets science apart from other methods, emphasizing that scientific knowledge is provisional—always open to challenge and improvement, pushing understanding forward through critical, systematic evaluation.
